Anyone come across screened compartment trunking before? If so is anyone aware of any specific reg governing the use of this, in regards to length of run allowed for lv cables in elv side?

I know they shouldn’t be together in the same compartment but sometimes it’s unavoidable and crossing occurs. Also on long runs of cable tray you have the same issue.
Yes I’ve used it.Anyone come across screened compartment trunking before? If so is anyone aware of any specific reg governing the use of this, in regards to length of run allowed for lv cables in elv side?
I had a metre in my head but wasn’t sure if it was a regulation or not. So it’s just a rule of thumb. Thanks for clearing it up.Yes I’ve used it.
Not aware of an specific or non-specific Reg governing it’s use.
If ELV and LV cables are run in the same containment, the insulation of both should be rated at the highest voltage.
Rule of thumb, is that data and LV cables should not be together for more than 1 metre.
Yes this is the trunking I’m talking about.You can get multi compartment trunking that looks like it's been sprayed with copper, I have seen it but never installed it.
