Sep 13, 2011 Thread starter #3 timm333 Electrical Jun 4, 2009 121 There are two power conduits. One for 120/208V 250A cable, and the other is for 480V 30A cable. The power loads are lighting, HVAC, door opener etc. By instrument coduits I mean the conduits for paging speakers and video cameras. How much should the distance be between power and instrument conduits? Upvote 0 Downvote

If the 250 A circuit is in PVC conduit, I'd try to maintain 12 inch separation. The 30A circuit shouldn't be a problem. David Castor http://www.cvoes.com Upvote 0 Downvote
