Night Owl Posted May 24, 2016 Posted May 24, 2016 Need to run a cat5 externally undergound 70m ( Can be small 20mm ), what type of containment do you reccommend that's not going to cost a bomb? Quote

Night Owl Posted May 24, 2016 Author Posted May 24, 2016 Star, thnak you! Am I right in thinking you can run normal Cat5 with SWA because the metal in armour stops EMF? Quote
Simlec Posted May 24, 2016 Posted May 24, 2016 The armour is for protection not stopping EMF. should not be run together and segregated as they are different voltage bands, unless all cables are rated for the higher voltage band. all your cabling should be installed to BS7671 Quote
