As the cables are<br \/>\nnever packed tightly together or are absolutely parallel, it is<br \/>\nnot enough to base the volume calculation solely on the<br \/>\ncable diameter.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">A realistic calculation is provided by the formula (2r)2,<br \/>\nwhere 2r is the diameter of cable.

In many projects, this rule is used<br \/>\nas an initial assumption for measuring and modifying the support structure. Calculation principle: This principle<br \/>\ncalculates the cross-section area of a cable tray. It is assumed that a full cable tray has a cable density of 0.28<br \/>\nkg\/cm2. Example: The cross-section area of a 50mm x 300mm cable tray (i.e. 5 x 30 cm) is 150 cm2.<br \/>\n(considering inner dimensions). As a general rule, the resulting loading capacity is 0.28 x 150 = 42 kg\/m2.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] SELECTION OF CABLE TRAYS A) CABLE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM SELECTION: To select the perfect cable support system, you need to know which type of cables are to be laid and construction site conditions.
