Data and LV cables.

[Bsharp]

Has anybody any thoughts on this,
Situation is existing steel trunking 100x100 carrying low voltage circuits dropping into 3 compartment Dado, client required data also installing into Dado, trunking non-segregated and can’t be changed (loads of it) can anybody foresee any issues with installing mt3 for instance inside the steel and running data via this?
obviously a separate trunking would be preferable but the situation doesn’t allow for this. All ideas greatly received!!

If the data cables are insulated to the same degree as he same degree as the V cables I don't see any problems.

Trunking within trunking is not really any different to multi compartment. probably your best option!
