Support the cable before it loads the entry
- Cable cleat
A cleat transfers specified cable forces into a support. Short-circuit duty requires the actual cable arrangement and cleat evidence.
- Cable harness
A grouped cable assembly uses defined routing and securing points. Grouping alone does not give every cable the same rating or support requirement.
- Festoon cable
Suspended loops accommodate travel. Check cable flex duty, trolley movement and the load transferred to stationary terminations.
- Cable carrierThis term
An articulated carrier guides the route through controlled curvature. Match fill, separation, anchoring and cable movement capability.
- Service loop
The spare loop permits access or movement for service. Protect it from snagging and provide separate strain relief.
- Continuous-flex cable
The cable is selected for repeated movement under defined conditions. A flexible-looking cable is not automatically a continuous-flex cable.
Clamps, harness ties, festoon loops and moving carriers impose different routing conditions. A service loop provides access length and still needs independent restraint.
Conceptual routes. Clamp spacing, carrier radius, permitted cable types and moving duty must follow the installation and cable specifications.
