Q43: What is the minimum separation distance required between power and
communication cables?
A43:Table 10.4.1 in TIA-569 specifies distance requirements based on
voltage spikes and the use of metallic or non-metallic trunking. The numbers
in this table have been disputed in recent years and will most likely
be revised in TIA-569-A. The IEEE electrical regulation requires only
a physical barrier between power and communications lines for safety purposes.
