A question came up recently which was what actually constitutes high voltage?
I know 12v is considered low voltage, I use it for control, led, and other items all the time. But I also routinely run 70v audio lines through walls and in ceilings and have never had issues, from others or from AHJ. But I have been told on more than one occasion that 100v audio lines are high voltage and have to be in conduit, and I know 120 is always considered high voltage.
So is there a code list or something that specifies what high and low voltage is? Or is it on a case by case basis.
