Question:
Is it permissible to install a security alarm system alarm wire sharing the same rigid metal conduit as a 240 V feed to a car charging station? It is an underground conduit run from the front of the residence approximately 10 feet distance under the sidewalk to curbside.
I have a client who needs a charging station and wants a tamper alarm installed onto his curbside charger.
Thank you. Michael Janiszewski

Answer:
Hey Michael thanks for your question. If the security alarm system wiring is a Class 2 circuit, which is likely, then no, separation is required as stated in 725.136. You should be able to tell from the power supply marking and the manufacturer's instructions.
