A support bracket is needed every few meters of cable tray
Traditionally, it has been recommended to install brackets approximately every 1 to 1. 5 meters along the length of the cable tray. There are factors to consider when determining the appropriate bracket spacing for your installation. A cable support system consists of cable support lengths and system components, such as cable support fittings, support elements, mounting elements and system acces-sories. The cable support lengths and fittings can basically be designed as cable trays, cable ladders or mesh cable trays, in which. Cable tray support quantity can be calculated using a simple formula: Support Quantity = Total Length ÷ Support Spacing + 1 20 ÷ 2 + 1 = 11 supports In a typical project, a 20-meter cable tray with 2-meter spacing requires 11 supports. Cable tray supports are components used to fix and support. This publication is intended as a practical guide for the proper and safe* installation of cable ladder systems, cable tray systems, channel support systems and associated supports. 8 (Other Mechanical Stresses (AJ)) in that document provides requirements for cable support.

Function of cable tray expansion joint support
According to NEC Section 300-7 (b), cable trays must be designed to accommodate the thermal expansion and contraction of the cables they support. A rung spacing of 6 to 9 inches (150 to 230 mm) is preferable when the cable tray cont d for instrumentation and control applications that require. 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. es in the industrial environment. As cables and trays expand or contract, they can cause stress on the structure, leading to potential damage or misalignment. Considering a 100m cable bus system under normal site conditions, an Aluminum housing would expand 18cm.
