The voltage between conductors of two different grounded sources like this depends on which phase of each supply each conductor is on. You can actually change this difference by swapping phases on either or both circuits.yes with some exceptions for switches/devices supplied from 277 .
yes with some exceptions for switches/devices supplied from 277 different legs or 277 and 120. Also note the rules in Arts 200, 210 and 215 for identification of the neutral and . You couldn’t mix line voltage and low voltage (e.g. 12 volts) in the same box. You can interconnect the grounds or not. If the box is metal and the conduit is not (or no conduit), . High and low voltage conductors in the same junction box must be separated by a barrier. Outdated NEC reference: 800-52(a)(1)c.1.Exception 1. In the typical dbl. gang box . It's not at all abnormal or uncommon to have multiple circuits from different sources (different panels, different voltages, even different services altogether) in the same .
One of the biggest no-nos is wiring multiple circuits together in one junction box, if they have different voltages. It’s like trying to mix oil and water – they just don’t play well together. Think of it this way: each circuit is like a . You can SPLICE wires in the box, as long as the insulation on all the conductors is suitable for the to the highest voltage in the box. Since most wire used has a 600volt rating, if .
Safety is also a factor with different voltages all in the same junction box. I have to agree with the Canadian Electrical Code, its not allowed except for the supply and control of . I believe in keeping it simple. I don't see the importance of being able to dim the lighting in a rest room but I could still accomplish that with 2 120 volt switches in the same 4s . I can't use this as the high voltage and low voltage connect to the same switch. Basically what I'm asking is can a 24 volt wire and 120 volt wire be in the same device box if . The voltage between conductors of two different grounded sources like this depends on which phase of each supply each conductor is on. You can actually change this difference by swapping phases on either or both circuits.
yes with some exceptions for switches/devices supplied from 277 different legs or 277 and 120. Also note the rules in Arts 200, 210 and 215 for identification of the neutral and phase conductors where different systems are in the same enclosure, box or raceway. You couldn’t mix line voltage and low voltage (e.g. 12 volts) in the same box. You can interconnect the grounds or not. If the box is metal and the conduit is not (or no conduit), you’ll need to tie one or both grounds to the box.
High and low voltage conductors in the same junction box must be separated by a barrier. Outdated NEC reference: 800-52(a)(1)c.1.Exception 1. In the typical dbl. gang box installation, power in one half and phone and data in the other, there needs to be a partition in the box separating the two classes of conductors. It's not at all abnormal or uncommon to have multiple circuits from different sources (different panels, different voltages, even different services altogether) in the same junction box. Simply keep their neutrals separate, and tie all the grounding wires together. One of the biggest no-nos is wiring multiple circuits together in one junction box, if they have different voltages. It’s like trying to mix oil and water – they just don’t play well together. Think of it this way: each circuit is like a unique personality, with its own quirks and preferences.
You can SPLICE wires in the box, as long as the insulation on all the conductors is suitable for the to the highest voltage in the box. Since most wire used has a 600volt rating, if you have a J-box with 120 and 277/480 being spiced and then run to where ever, your good to go.
Safety is also a factor with different voltages all in the same junction box. I have to agree with the Canadian Electrical Code, its not allowed except for the supply and control of remote devices, like a motor starter, if all conductors are insulated for the highest voltage. I believe in keeping it simple. I don't see the importance of being able to dim the lighting in a rest room but I could still accomplish that with 2 120 volt switches in the same 4s box both at 120 volts, motion sensor for the fan and motion sensor with dimming for the lights. I can't use this as the high voltage and low voltage connect to the same switch. Basically what I'm asking is can a 24 volt wire and 120 volt wire be in the same device box if they are both 14 gauge wire.
