Tray Installation:

Cable Tray Installation:  The publication is intended as practical guide for the proper installation of cable system. Cable tray systems design and Installation shall comply with NEC Article – 392 & 318,
NEMA VE1, NEME VE2 and NEMA FG 1 and follow safe practices as described in NFPA 70E.

Tips for Cable Tray Installation:

Ø Cable tray specification shall be per NEMA VE1 the tray shall be per NEMA VE2.
Ø The distance between consecutive rungs shall not exceed 229 mm (9 Inch).
Ø Cable Ties for Vertical Application shall be provided every 18 inch (after one rung).
Ø Cable Tied for Horizontal application shall be provided every 27 inch (after two rungs).
Ø Unless otherwise noted, the support interval shall be not more than 2.4 meters as per NEMA VE1.
Ø For the Vertical Application cable ties must be 316SS with PVC coated.
Ø The open gap between tray/conduit to the instrument maximum 350 mm.
Ø The cable tray system shall be installation with manufactures standards fittings.
Ø Such as Clamps, Splicer Plates, Connector, Hangers, Reducer Plates, Grounding Brackets Blind, Nut Bolts,
Washers etc.
Ø  The channel cable tray material shall be copper free aluminum (Aluminum with max of 0.4% copper).
Ø Channel cable tray width shall be 3, 4, or 6 inches with a minimum loading depth of ¼ inch.
Ø Non metallic cable tray permitted in corrosive area. Non metallic cable trays shall be made of
flame retardant material.

NSL: Noise Susceptibility Level

Level 1: High to Medium susceptibility analog signals of less than 50V and discrete instrument signal of less than 30V.
Level 2:  Low susceptibility switching signal greater than 30V, analog signals grater then 50 V and 120 ~ 240 AC feeder less than 20 Amps.
Level 3:  Power AC and DC buses of 0 ~ 1000 V with currents of 20 ~ 800 Amps.
