DETERMINING THE SUITABLE TRAY SIZE

Drilling holes on the side of the cable tray

Drilling holes on the side of the cable tray

To avoid transverse bending at higher loads, a joint plate must be used for tray widths of 400 mm or more in the joint area of the cable trays that are to be connected. Developed by Interstates, this cable tray cutting guide acts as a guide for a metal cutting circular saw for cutting the side rail of a cable tray as well as a guide for drilling the connecting holes in the cable tray. A rung spacing of 6 to 9 inches (150 to 230 mm) is preferable when the cable tray cont d for instrumentation and control applications that require. The most common method of locating the hole positions is to use a splice plate as a template.

Standard cable tray widths per IEC 61537 and manufacturers' ranges are typically 50, 75, 100, 150, 200, 225, 300, 400, 450, 500, 600, 750, 900, and 1000mm. maintain spacing or to keep cables in place when the tray is ect the minimum bend ra-dius for cables as they exit the bottom of the cable tray. A rung spacing of 6 to 9 inches (150 to 230 mm) is preferable when the cable tray cont d for instrumentation and control applications that require. Ladder cable tray is available in widths of 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42 and 48 inches with rung spacings of 6, 9, 12 or 18 inches. These dimensions define the available cross-sectional area for cable installation.
