Russian roulette anyone?
stasis,
Yes, as long as the insulation class is sufficient, it's per NEC code. But it's like playing Russian roulette, the longer you play, the more of a chance you'll eventually loose and not like the consequences. Been there, done that. (with regards to having to troubleshoot why 24VDC failed, that is. It had "floated" to over 200V and wonder why relays were doing random things on someone else's design.)
I'm stuck now in an application where I have to run some 24VDC through a disconnect switch that will have up to 400A 460/60/3 and at times it will be switched over to an inverter to run the motors from 43 to 65 hz. I'm going to only cross the power wires at 90 degrees and am using shielded 600V class cable as an insurance policy.
