All changes of direction must be supported in the immediate vicinity of the joints (distance ≤ 150 mm) by an appropriate supporting structure. Inclined cable trays
The length between support positions will change depending on the cable design, size, materials and weight. For example, an MDPE sheathed cable will be stiffer and therefore require a greater distance
Cable Tray Support Span: The distance between supports is a critical calculation. The cable tray support span must be determined based on the manufacturer''s
As per the NEC, the maximum allowable rung spacing is 9 inches (230 mm) when cable tray carries sin-gle-conductor cables of 1/0 to 4/0 AWG (American Wire Gauge) (Appendix I).
