Home / Is a single cable used for a cable tray
In many cases there is more than one type of cable for a particular application, for instance both cables rated as tray cable (TC) and cables rated as metal clad (MC) can be used for 600- volt motor power cables. The purpose of a cable tray system is to support, route, and protect cable as part of the cable management system. Through NEMA and the Cable Tray Institute numerous articles, standards, and other general guidance can be found regarding the proper use and installation of cable tray systems. Cable tray is classified by the NEC (NFPA 70 the National Electrical Code) as a support system and not as a raceway. This is a critical distinction because it means the requirements for the cable contained in raceway is.
