This procedure covers the method for all the cable pulling, electrical connections and terminations for cables running on cable ladders and cable trays. Cable pulling systems are critical tools in the construction, telecommunications, and electrical industries. Excessive pulling tension, improper bend radius, and unsupported pathways can deform conductors, introduce signal loss, and. The National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) also publishes three consensus standards that apply to the proper manufacture and installation of cable trays: ANSI/NEMA-VE 1-1998, Metal Cable Tray Systems; NEMA-VE 2-1996, Metal Cable Tray Installation Guidelines; and NEMA-FG-1998. This method statement covers the site installation of the cable tray & ladders and the requirements of checks to be carried out.
