ok thanks,
if we leave the mains in its own trunking... is there still a problem with
running all the other cables together (telephone, cat5, alarm sensors)
the mains wiring was installed by a builder who i now suspect is no more a
qualified electrician than i am - he just told us to run everything in the
same trunking and ran it in oversize trunking for that reason... but seemed
odd hence i thought i should check
thanks,
