Spacing of U-shaped cable trays

Spacing Standards: Electrical (power) and instrumentation (signal/control) cable trays should maintain a minimum vertical and horizontal distance. The spacing between trays, whether horizontal or vertical, depends on various factors like cable type, environment, and tray material. 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. This publication is intended as a practical guide for the proper and safe* installation of cable ladder systems, cable tray systems, channel support systems and associated supports. Cable ladder systems and cable tray systems shall be manufactured in accordance with BS EN 61537, channel support. In practice, cable tray dimensions are a system of interrelated measurements —width, depth, length, and material thickness—that directly affect cable fill compliance, heat dissipation, structural loading, and long-term expandability. Separation of Electrical and Instrumentation Cables Electrical on Top, Instrumentation Below: Typically, electrical trays are positioned above instrumentation trays.
