Cable tray support quantity can be calculated using a simple formula: Support Quantity = Total Length ÷ Support Spacing + 1 20 ÷ 2 + 1 = 11 supports In a typical project, a 20-meter cable tray with 2-meter spacing requires 11 supports. OBO BETTERMANN has offered prod-ucts and solutions for electrical instal-lation for over 100 years. With our many years of experience, we are one of the leading manufacturers in this field. Cable tray (or cable ladder) systems are a popular alternative to electrical conduit systems, as they have an outstanding record for dependable service, design flexibility and cost savings in commercial and industrial applications. All illustrations, descriptions and technical information included in this document are provided as indications and can cable trays are equivalent.
