Spacing of cable tray supports against the wall

Spacing of cable tray supports against the wall

The NEC requires that cable trays must be supported by members at an interval specified by the cable tray manufacturer, but not more than 5 feet for horizontal runs to support the weight of the cables and other loads. The safety of your people and the reliability of your electrical system depend on proper cable tray support spacing. In this blog, we'll focus on support spacing for perforated, ladder and wire mesh cable trays and reference the National Electrical Code (NEC). Understanding cable tray spacing is key to meeting safety regulations and maintaining system performance. The mechanical and electrical characteristics, tests, certifications, overall quality management, recommendations mentioned.
