ac/dc in one cable

Featured Replies

Good day,

I have a 5 core cabtyre cable (flexable lead with 5 insulated cores inside) with 380volt rating. Can I use one core for earth, two cores for dc12v to power LED's and the other two cores to run a 220V AC fridge?

The length of the cable is about 2 meters.

With that short length you will be fine.

With long lengths there is significant inductive coupling between the high voltage AC to the low voltage cables.
