RUNNING SENSOR CABLE IN NEW CONSTRUCTION

SCHEDULING AND PREPARATION

Plan to schedule the sensor wiring after the electrical wiring is finished. That way you can avoid cable routes which could potentially induce interference over the sensor cable. The basic rules are:

Never run the sensor cable through the same hole as an electrical cable. Never run the sensor cable into the same J-box as electrical cable.

Avoid running the sensor cable beside the electrical cable. Keep it at least 3 or 4 feet distant from any electrical power cable.

As side-by-side wiring is unavoidable in particular spots in every house, just move the sensor cable route away as soon as possible. If construction forces a side by side run for more than ten feet, install metal conduit or shielded sensor cable. Low-voltage cables such as doorbells, intercoms, telephone, speaker, security, or television cannot cause interference on your sensor cables, so you can safely run all of them at the same time, through the same holes, side-by-side.
