Default Running power and coax together


"Kelly" wrote in message
...
I'm re-routing the powerline to my electrically heated hot tub. It needs
to cross walkway, so I'd like to bury it in concrete in a cut that would
also hold the RG-6 coax from my satellite dish. They'd be parallel about
4 ft. Is this OK, or will it lead to interference? Can I get away with
it if I put the power line in metal conduit? (Can metal conduit be buried
in concrete?)

Thanks for any advice,

Kelly


If each are in a separate piece of PVC conduit I think you would be fine.

I would do that even if UF cable is approved for your hot tub circuit in
your area.

I really don't have a clue as to what CODE might be but common sense says
the two should not touch.
