I am helping out the village hall in our village, the committee want to extend the network in their main building to another building about 20 yards away, another local chap has offered 50m of network cable he has lying around, they want to do this as cheaply as possible (well actually they don't really want to do it, but the users of the other building are desperate for it). The buildings share a boundary and there is a fence running along the boundary so the most logical solution seems to be to run some network cable out of the wall of one building, along the fence in some conduit and into the other building.
Is this going to create any electrical grounding requirements? The cable is Cat5E and will only be carrying data (no PoE) but obviously at each end it's going to be plugged into a piece of network equipment which will be on two different electrical supplies.
If we use metal conduit for durability between the two buildings, will this create any grounding requirements? Is any of this work notifiable?
Thank you!
