Run low and full voltage line in one conduit

Asked April 9, 2019 by a homeowner in Electrical (Nitin Jain)

Can I run couple of low voltage wires along with one full voltage wire in a single conduit?

I am installing low voltage lights in my back yard. To connect those lights to the transformer I need to run the wire though a conduit along with a full voltage wire.

    Bridging of multiple wires in a single end fitting and conductor junctions in wiring ducts are not permitted. The minimum cross-section for the conductors is 1.5 mm2 for high current and 1 mm2 for reduced voltage or low current.
