Running fiber from house to shop. Attached is a sketch of how I plan on accomplishing this. The fiber will be passing through 20' of 2" PVC conduit that has four 2AWG aluminum service wires (240v).
Will it work? Thanks, Phillip.IMAGE 1.jpg

My knowledge of networking is extremely limited. My concern is compatibility with my existing hardware and ISP. Thank you.

Seems like you know what you're doing.

Also fiber doesn't care about voltage in the conduit.

If you want to try terminating fiber yourself, you could go with 50 micron multi-mode instead. The distance, application, and bandwidth you are working with would not be limited. If you just want to get it done, then run something pre-terminated and rated for outdoor application (OSP). If you foresee yourself putting more cabling in there, you could invest in maxcell/flexible conduit to prevent abrasion in the future.
