Re: [smartBridges] Conduit a good idea?

[Kevin Proctor]

I don't know of any places around here that require it for residential installs, but most of the buildings we put distributed antenna systems in required conduit for low voltage.  Now, just try and convince an electrical inspector that leaky coax can NOT be put in conduit or you defeat the whole purpose of having the leaky coax in the first place!  (I can see it now.  700 questions about leaky coax.  :-) )  Yes, it could have applications for wireless broadband.

Thank You, Kevin for the comments and the reassurances. Yes, it is costly and time consuming.....so are the alternatives to not doing it. Your comment about meeting code is a good one. Had not thought of that. Looks like its' gonna be conduit city from here on out. <ughhh>

Bobby,

I'll talk about it.  It's a great idea.  The only problem is that it is going to take a lot more time on the average install.  Some business codes may actually require it, even though we are low voltage.  There are some municipalities around Denver that do require it, even for low voltage.  It certainly cures the shielding problem. :)  AND it looks professional as all get out.

No one wants to talk about using conduit today it seems! Are we in denial? See the earlier post for the arguments for using conduit on CPE installs. Feedback much appreciated.
