Running AC and DC cables together

[wallyanker]

Hi All

Can anyone point me in the right direction in the regs book where it says you can not run AC and DC cables next to each other unless a dividing screen is put in place. I know in my head the cables must be at least 150mm apart, or a screen in place but my boss says they can go together.

Thanks
Pete

You can run AC/DC conductors, providing the insulation rating are equal to the max voltage applied or you partition

Section 528.1 in the regulations
