Modular distribution box for cables
A distribution box for cables, the distribution box comprising a plurality of modules arranged in a stacked relationship along a longitudinal direction, the plurality of modules comprising: a base module having an inlet port for receiving one or more cables, a cap module, one or more distribution modules arranged between the base module and the cap module, each distribution module having one or more outlet ports. Attachment members are formed on each module for attaching longitudinally the stacked modules, a retaining element is provided and configured to act on the base module and the cap module to mutually urge the stacked modules along the longitudinal direction.
SLIDER BRACKET ASSEMBLY
A slider bracket assembly is provided having one or more slider brackets, one or more strap-slider brackets, a main cable tray, and a tray section, wherein the one or more slider brackets couple the one or more strap-slider brackets to both the main cable tray and the tray section. Methods for installing a slider bracket assembly comprise coupling slider brackets to a first strap-slider bracket and a second strap-slider bracket, coupling the first and second strap-slider brackets to a tray section to form a tray section assembly, and then coupling the tray assembly to a main cable tray using the first and second strap-slider brackets.
Non-welded horizontal cable tray redirector
Improved design of cable tray redirector components speeds assembly and connection of cable trays. More efficiently manufactured, universal components needed throughout horizontal redirectors of a specific size and type cable tray run reduce the overall total items and cost of inventory. The improvement is in part the elimination of welding cable redirector components in favor of connecting the components with bolts and nuts in the field. The inventory and shipment of individual parts is substantially more efficient because the new components “nest” efficiently prior to assembly. Moreover, components are designed to minimize the number of bolts and nuts used without jeopardizing strength. The use of bolts and nuts to fasten the components also enables good electrical conductivity for effective electrical grounding of the assembled cable tray system.
CABLE GLAND INCLUDING INTERNAL DAM
A cable gland includes an internal dam. The internal dam includes a plurality of filaments to inhibit curable liquid from flowing through the dam and between the dam and one or more conductors of a cable.
Intersection system for overhead cable trays
A cable-tray intersection system that connects a first wire basket and an intersecting second wire basket. Each wire basket is formed of a plurality of wires extending horizontally to form a floor and a plurality of wires extending vertically forming side walls. The intersection system includes a top plate mounted on the floors of the wires baskets and a pair of corner braces. The top plate has a first edge, a second edge, and a pair of corner edges formed between the first edge and second edge. The pair of corner braces mount between the first wire basket and the second wire basket and are spaced apart from the top plate.
Cable tray assembly
A cable tray assembly includes first and second cable tray sections each including a base and rails extending transversely from longitudinal sides of the base. At least one of the base and the rails defines a plurality of holes. A splice plate is configured to engage the first and second cable tray sections for attaching the first cable tray section to the second cable tray section. The splice plate defines a plurality of holes. At least one snap-fit connector includes a head and a plurality of resiliently deflectable arms extending from the head. The arms of the connector are configured to extend through aligned holes in the splice plate and one of the cable tray sections to secure the splice plate to said one of the cable tray sections.
CABLE TRAY SPLICE PLATE ASSEMBLY
The present disclosure provides a splice plate including a planar body, first and second pairs of opposing side walls, and a pair of tabs. The first pair of opposing side walls define two parallel slots with one slot engaging a first wire of a first cable tray section and a second slot engaging a first wire of a second cable tray section. The second pair of opposing side walls define at least one slot. A side wall of one of the second pair of opposing side walls engages a second wire of the first cable tray. A side wall of the other of the second pair of opposing side walls engages a second wire of the second cable tray section. One tab of the pair of tabs engages the first wire of the first cable tray section and a second tab engages the second cable tray section’s first wire.
CABLE TRAY ISOLATION PAD
The present disclosure is directed to multi-functional isolation pads that can be used in combination with both clamp-on cable trays and guide-on cable trays without any user manipulation (e.g., folding) of the isolation pad.
Splice for cable tray barrier strip
A splice couples together abutting barrier strips for a cable tray. The splice generally includes a base wall. Opposing sidewalls extend outward from opposite sides of the base wall. The opposing side walls and the base wall together define an open interior of the splice configured to receive the abutting barrier strips therein. A window may extend through the base wall to the open interior to allow the abutting barrier strips to be visible therethrough when the abutting barrier strips are received in the open interior of the splice. A grip may be on the opposing side walls to enhance gripping of the splice. At least one of the sidewalls may have a chamfered corner to enhance entry of the barrier strips into the open interior.
RIGID BUS DUCTS
A rigid bus duct comprising a pair of side rails extending in a longitudinal direction, a plurality of support members extending between the side rails in a transverse direction, and a plurality of insulated conductors extending longitudinally, and held in a fixed relationship to one another by the plurality of support members. The plurality of insulated conductors are arranged in groups including a plurality of high current phase groups and a neutral group, and a plurality of shielding structures connected between the support members and positioned with at least one shielding structure located between the insulated conductors of each high current phase group.
