Supports for cable trays should provide strength and working load capabilities sufficient to meet the load requirement of the cable
(1) This guide provides a quick reference to spacings of cable support clips in accessible positions. The spacing stated for horizontal runs may be applied also to runs at an angle of more than 30 Degrees from the vertical. As the cable diameter increases, the distance between clips is permitted to grow. (3) BS 7671 requires the intervals between cable supports (as well as the means of. 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. Proper installation can significantly reduce electromagnetic interference, prevent fire haza...
