Disadvantages of Aluminum Alloy Cable Trays
Aluminium Cable Trays: While durable, aluminium lacks the same strength as steel and is prone to deformation under heavy loads. Lightweight and High Strength Table: Weight Comparison of Cable Tray Materials Lightweight trays reduce labor costs, ease installation, and minimize additional structural reinforcement. Superior Corrosion Resistance. Strong Corrosion Resistance: Galvanized cable trays are coated with a layer of zinc, which effectively protects the tray from corrosion. This makes them ideal for environments with moderate humidity or industrial settings where exposure to moisture is a concern. This can lead to easier installation and reduced labor costs.

Spacing between cable trays on support
Support spacing for cable trays must align with the manufacturer's instructions, as outlined in NEC 392. Generally, standard trays require supports every 6 to 10 feet, while heavy-duty, long-span trays can handle distances of up to 20 feet between supports. The spacing between trays, whether horizontal or vertical, depends on various factors like cable type, environment, and tray material. Proper installation can significantly reduce electromagnetic interference, prevent fire hazards, and improve overall efficiency. Here's what you need to know: Cable Types: Only use. Although BS 7671 touches on the subject of cable supports, it does not detail specifically what these support distances should be.
