Horizontal hoisting is a common method for installing cable trays, especially when overhead support is available. Cable trays are indispensable components in modern construction and industrial environments, providing a structured and efficient way to manage and support electrical cables. They ensure organized routing, protection, and accessibility for various wiring systems. Only two splices are required to securely connect tray widths of wire basket tray. This system allows for very little. The purpose of this article is to define the sequence and methodology for the installation of electrical cable trays, cable trunking, cable raceways and boxes, junction and pull boxes. Cable tray system design shall comply with National Electrical Code® (NEC® ) Article 392, NEMA VE 1, and NEMA FG 1 and follow safe work practices a described in NFPA 70E.
