There is a new above ground gasoline tank being added to an existing gas station.
Is there a separation distance requirement between the above ground power conduits and the fuel pipes? The plan is to use the same unistrut for both the fuel lines and power conduit with a 12" separation between the two.

I found the 12" separation requirement in the NESC-C2 code page "V" but it looks like it applies to underground lines. Do you know of other above ground separation requirements?

There is no special classified location separation requirement. The usual prohibition against supporting the piping with the raceway still applies of course.
