Electrical cable tray ground support

Electrical cable tray ground support

If an EGC cable is installed in or on a cable tray, it should be bonded to each or alternate cable tray sections via grounding clamps (this is not required by the NEC® but it is a desirable practice). All illustrations, descriptions and technical information included in this document are provided as indications and can cable trays are equivalent. The mechanical and electrical characteristics, tests, certifications, overall quality management, recommendations mentioned. When developing our cable support OBO can offer reliable solutions for systems, three attributes are at the routing and fastening cables securely core of what we do: efficiency, resil- for each of these installation challeng-ience and safety. However, without proper grounding and bonding, these systems can become potential sources of electrical hazards.
