200 Cable tray support installation distance

Home / 200 Cable tray support installation distance

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. 8 (Other Mechanical Stresses (AJ)) in that document provides requirements for cable support. This spacing is crucial for adequate maintenance access, ease of inspection, and ensuring proper airflow for effective heat dissipation.

Cable tray manual

The distance between supports affects the tray strength exponentially; therefore the strength of the cable tray system selected should be designed around the specific support span chosen for that run.
