ICC's new Elite Multi-Media Box has four separate knockouts for raceway system fittings and features rear access for cable entrance. ICC junction boxes allow easy cable access entry, contain cable routing posts for added stability, and are designed with raceway knockouts. All knockouts can be easily removed with pliers to accommodate all ICC raceway sizes. Made of 94V-0 rigid vinyl for low voltage (under 50V) communication cabling, the raceway is easy to cut, trim and can be painted in order to create a custom look.
All components of the Raceway System are designed to maintain a minimum 1 inch bend radius for both copper (making it Category 5, 5e and 6 compliant) and fiber optic cable. Raceways can incorporate a wide variety of media, including UTP, STP, ScTP, Coaxial, Audio, Video and Fiber Optic. ICC's raceways utilize a one-piece adhesive back design with an integrated latching system for quick changes and ease of installation.

What is Cable Tray? 1. What is a Cable Tray System? What is a Cable Tray System? Per the National Electrical Code, a cable tray system is "a unit or assembly of units or sections and associated fittings forming a rigid structural system used to securely fasten or support cables and raceways." * Cable trays support cable the way that roadway bridges support traffic. What standards / guidelines are available for cable tray systems? 1. The National Electrical Code publishes the standards for all types of electrical applications. Articles 318, 250, and 800 cover various aspects of cable tray systems. NEMA VE1 covers general cable tray definitions, manufacturing standards, performance standards, test standards, and application information. Free download of this document is available on the NEMA website. NEMA FG1 addresses the standards for fiberglass cable tray systems. Free download of this document is available on the NEMA website. NEMA VE2 is a cable tray installation guideline which covers receiving and unloading material, storage of material, and general installation practices. Free download of this document is available on the NEMA website. What types of Cable Tray are available? 1. Ladder Cable Tray How do I know what type of cable tray is right for my application? 1. Ladder Cable Tray provides: What materials / finishes are available for the various cable tray systems? 1. Steel (Min. Yield = 33KSI) (35 KSI for Stainless) Now that I know what types of cable trays are available, what configurations are available? 1. Straight sections are available to route cables in a horizontal or vertical plane. After selecting the type of cable tray and configuration required, what support methods are available? 1. Trapeze Support (Single or Multi-tier) Each of these support methods are preferable in different applications. For instance, trapeze supports may be desired in an application where cables will be pulled through the cable tray. Center hung supports, on the other hand, are generally used when cables will be installed from the side of the cable tray. Center hung supports are especially useful when future cable additions are desired. Wall supports and underfloor supports are useful when ceiling structure is not available or undesired. Outdoor installations are controlled by the structures available to support the cable tray. 1. Where? Job site and installation considerations 2. What?
A few short years ago, cable tray was a "smoke stack" product, used primarily in heavy industrial facilities to support power cables. Today it is still servicing the industrial and power users, but it has also found its way into institutional and commercial applications, supporting telecom cabling systems. The reason for its rapidly changing characteristics is that the products are adapting to changing customer needs. The electrical and telecom industries have discovered cable tray strengths, safety, speed of installation, openness for future change, adaptability, and today, the vast product selection tailored to particular needs. Traditional two side rail cable tray Aluminum is the material of choice--excellent corrosion protection, light weight, high strength, no finish to specify or repair, ease of field fabrication, and more economical to install. The environment is the ultimate controller as to the material and/or finish of a system. 316 stainless steel or fiberglass may be required in some corrosive areas. After the material /finish has been considered, the bottom type of cable tray needs to be determined. Ladder, ventilated trough, solid bottom (trough) are common styles available. Ladder is the most common as it provides the most cable freedom and air circulation (for power cables). For ladder-type systems, the rung spacing needs to be selected for the straight section. The most common rung spacing (not the standard) in the U.S. is nine inches. With certain exceptions, the rung spacing is controlled by the support requirements of the cables being supported. Longer rung spacings are more economical and provide added cable freedom but can affect the system’s strength.
The solid bottom metal system with solid metal covers also has applications in environmental air areas supporting non-plenum rated cables (Figure C). It's important to note that a solid bottom, covered cable tray remains a cable tray and is not a wireway (tray-rated cables required). The next issue is the strength requirement. Remember, these are support systems (bridges), so not only is it important to consider the load but the span (distance between supports) must be known. It is also important to consider other stresses the system must withstand--ice, wind, and snow loads. Needless to say, matching the system strength to the installation requirement is important. As standard two side rail cable tray systems cover a wide range of sizes, strengths, and styles, so do their applications. The heaviest special systems can span 30 feet and are used when intermediate supports are impossible or impractical (over roadways, for example). The lightest systems are best suited for non-power, indoor installation where the span is from eight to ten feet. The mid-range between these extremes covers a vast amount of applications and can be found from offshore oilrigs to your county courthouse, supporting heavy power cables to fiber optic cables. The traditional two-side rail cable tray product offering is the core of the domestic cable tray industry. New systems are being developed to satisfy more specific customer needs. Channel type cable systems are used as a flexible, low-cost means of connecting equipment to main tray runs. Often channel feeds power down to a pump or motor within an industrial facility. The compact size of channel makes it easier to position around and connect to equipment. This style of cable tray is available non-ventilated or ventilated, as shown in (figure D). Center supported cable trays The rungs pass through the center spine at the bottom, as shown in (Figure E), or through the top, as shown in (Figure F). As not all installations or customer needs are the same, more specialized systems have developed. Wall-mounted racks are available (Figure G) Wire basket systems The 2x4 wire mesh construction (Figure J) offers some desired advantages not at first visible. Cable tray today is ever changing, ever growing. It is doing what it should; it is evolving to satisfy a constantly changing set of customer needs. All of these systems have their strengths, all have their weaknesses. They are a growing part of the cable support products today and will continue to adapt and grow. Standards affecting the two-side rail product groupings are: the applying electrical code, NEMA VE-1 or FG-1, UL classification, and NEMA VE-2. The applying electrical code depends on your area. Should it be the National Electrical Code, Article 318 will be of major interest. This document addresses cable fill allowed for different product types, where it can and can’t be used, and the cable types it can support. The NEMA VE-1 and NEMA FG-1 standards address the manufacturing standards for metal (VE-1) and non-metallic (FG-1) systems. These publications contain the standards to which the National Electrical Manufacturers Association members manufacture their products. The NEMA VE-2 is a fairly new document created to be an installation guide. At this time, there are no domestic standards that mention wire basket systems. The system’s loading capabilities are being stated in terms that the U.S. standards do not address. The loading is being determined by continuous beam testing, and a specified deflection is the controlling factor. This type of testing is common in Europe and is part of the proposed IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) cable tray specification. As the IEC spec will not be completed until sometime in 1999, the testing method being used is hard to define.
