This is a description of how to select, install, and support these metal or plastic frames, on which electrical wires are installed. The mechanical and electrical characteristics, tests, certifications, overall quality management, recommendations mentioned in this technical guide only apply to our own cable management ranges and cannot under any circumstances be transposed to si osure, overheating or.
