Never posted before but I am curious to know if anyone has any practical suggestions on how to separate electic power conductors from non-power limited communication conductors per NEC 2002 Article 800.11. The idea is to install these conductors in separate conduits but they will pass through a common underground vault. Who makes "suitable" brick, concrete or tile partitions.

Conduits or other raceways within the manhole are sometimes used for this purpose. Some authorities will accept conductor supports which maintain physical separation.
 
If it is LV cable with communication cable then it is desirable to run through same raceway with separate conduit.
