Is it permissible to run 16 awg 600 volt insulated cabling (being used for a 16 vac transformer) in the same conduit where there is 18/2 unshielded, 18/6 shielded, and CAT5e cabling in the conduit?
I wanted to provide only one conduit to go from a door that has a card reader and directory entry phone (that needs a 16 vac transformer to power it) and run all the wiring in the same conduit
from the door to the comm room but wasn't sure if I can run the 16 awg 600 volt insulated cabling in the same conduit with the other cabling per code. Thanks.

You seem to be hung up on the fact that this is a 600v listed cable. The determining factor is that it is being used for a 16v CL2 circuit. That it has 600v insulation is irrelevant. So given that, it's installation in a conduit with other CL2 and data is just fine.
