    Yes ya I agree. Interesting subject none the less and good to know.

    I know a guy who had almost the whole DB with home auto stuff (12V DC) and is currently taking it out and separating to get it compliant. This is where my dive into DC and all is coming from mostly. When we do solar or inverter its all separate amd fairly easy to do so.

    Either way separation with conduit or trunking helps and then the double insulated cable i feel is similar as it has a second protective covering but not sold on that yet.

    Just good to chat about all this and learn, get opinions and grow. I tried the ECA on a number of occasions for all sorts and I get nothing... perhaps because not a member hahah.

    Just a note for anyone reading these posts ... its not about being the brightest crayon in the box or Harvard degree bright spark ... at the end of the day what happens in these threads is more important ... when you are seated in the box and every one is waiting for your response ... what they want to hear is ... what steps did you take to prevent an incident.

    Being the smartest lad in the room is not always the best ... they going to pin you for being the person who should have know better ... thats what it all boils to.

    Ask a lot of question and make an effort to do it right ... and generally you will be ok ... nobody is perfect ... and beware of people who think they know everything.
    Comments are based on opinion...not always facts....that's why people use an alias.
