Probably a stupid question but the girlfriend has got me thinking it isn't. Is there any issue with running a ring main cable through a cavity wall next to the gas main?

Ring mains cable running alongside mains gas?

The cables should not physically touch the gas pipe.Ideally the cables should go through their own pipe/conduit.

Is there any reason for this?

Yes, she is a woman. Mrs Twocities always says "I may make mistakes, but I'm never wrong"....

Hehe, I actually meant is there any reason why I can't run the mains cable alongside (and yes it probably will touch as the hole isn't that big.) I'm thinking it might be difficult even to run the cable through a conduit. Balls.

Yea I know, just didn't want to make more mess and get another earful.
