24v ran with 230v cable

Nathan Rose

Hello

I have got to run some 24v dc robus 2 core wire to feed led strip along the roof of a barn. The only route available has already got some lighting switch wires and a smoke detector supply running the length of the barn. I am wondering if running the 24v wire parallel to the 230v wire will have any consequences? The longest run will be 9m, and the robus cable is rated at 300v. 

any advice is most appreciated. 

thanks

Nathan

    Occasionally, there might be some EMC issues depending what the 230 V cable is supplying (how much current, inrush currents, and  how "noisy" from an EMC perspective). In general, though, over a run of 9 m, as Mike says, should be fine - try and include some spacing where possible.
