When laying cable trays the top distance from
Top Clearance: The top of the cable tray should maintain a minimum distance of 0. 3 meters from the ceiling or any other obstructions. This spacing is crucial for adequate maintenance access, ease of inspection, and ensuring proper airflow for effective heat dissipation. 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. Dividers or Partitions: Where. If unavoidable, the distance should be no less than 500 mm, and a corrosion-resistant partition should be used.
