Cable Tray #

Calculated per CEC Rules 12-2200 - 12-2210:

Tray Width Needed:

Total Cable & Environmental Load:

Tray Depth:

Percent Cable Fill:

* Power cables must be derated if adequate cooling space is not maintained between cables in
accordance with CEC Rule 12-2212 and Tables 1, 2, 3, 4, 5A, 5C & 5D.
** The calculation is based on total cable widths where the stacking criteria is less than or equal to
2. If the stacking criteria is Random, the total cable volume is based on the assumption of no
maximum fill rate.
