Hello group.

I'm going to be installing some underground conduit (PVC) approx. 120'
for a future shop in back of my property. Will I be inviting any signal
or transmission interference problems by running cat5, rg5/6, and
electrical in the same conduit?

It's not a problem to keep the electrical feed seperate in another
conduit, but I would appreciate any input from the experienced.


If you can find 300 volt rated shielded Ethernet cable, and rg-6 go ahead. I
have never seen any so you may be facing an uphill battle.

I would consider 2 conduits. One for low voltage and one for line voltage.
Keeping the conduits separated in the trench will help the signals for the
low voltage.

Or direct bury the power and conduit the low voltage
