Spacing requirements for cable trays and pipe supports

Home / Spacing requirements for cable trays and pipe supports

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. 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.
