120v Wires Near 12v Wires - -Problem?

[BFL13]

Reading not to put a charger's 120v wires in with its 12v wires in same conduit.

I have 120v wires into a charger and out of an inverter all mixed in with various 12v wires in a haphazard way under a dinette seat where some are close together. Haven't noticed any "issues" (but there might be some un-noticed)

What are the possible issues? Thanks.

From Renogy DC-DC-MPPT manual, "Do not lay the AC cable and DC cable in the same conduit (empty pipe)."

Yes, I forgot to include "under dinette" in the search.

What I meant to say, if it was taken another way (not clear), was that Google info was very useful. It seemed not to apply to me, where it said about wires in parallel and so on.

I think I am good from that and the comment that close together is not the same as in a conduit.

Thanks, all! Forum saves the day again. 🙂

On that. we agree.

I do not know if they shared a loom on my RV or not (no conduits just wire wraps) but other than inductive coupling I can not see any serious issues

Still best to not do it if you can do it differently.

Good policy in 2001 and now, Dusty.

I haven't worked as an electrician since 2001 but back then the National Electrical Code required that when low voltage wires run in the same conduit as 120 + volt wires they needed to both be rated to carry the same voltage.

Remember back when you had a lot of static on you radio? I would not worry too much about it.

Couple issues
Induced noise
Confusion later on is that a 120VAC or is that a 12VDC neutral/ground---hot?

All wires should be 600V Rating
