Requirements for electrostatic grounding of cable trays

NEC Article 392 governs cable tray grounding requirements. Metallic wire mesh trays must be electrically continuous and properly bonded. If an EGC cable is installed in or on a cable. Table 392. 60(A) “Metal Area Requirements for Cable Trays used as Equipment Grounding Conductors” shows the minimum cross-sectional area of cable tray side rails (total of both side rails) required for the cable tray to be used as the Equipment Grounding Conductor (EGC) for a specific Fuse Rating. This article provides a comprehensive framework that governs various aspects of cable tray installations, including the types of cables that are deemed acceptable for use, requirements for grounding and bonding, and s...
