Regarding the laying of optical cables and power cables
Thread Content
Due to limited on-site conditions, we are now planning to place the optical cable in the power cable tray (380V AC), at a distance of about 600 meters. I don’t think there will be any problems; after all, one is an optical signal and the other is an electrical signal, so there’s no risk of interference. Has anyone else done this before?
According to the specifications, outdoor optical fibers can be tied along the cable tray; there is no need to place them inside the tray.
It’s not a big problem to use it, but if it is used for control, especially in interlocking systems, it is recommended to follow the specifications strictly； It can be used for just communication displays, calls, etc. SHT 3019-2016 Code for Design of Instrumentation and Piping Systems in Petrochemical Industries:
