    Is the cable tray part considered low-voltage wiring

    Coaxial cable is typically CM-type, making it suitable for most low-voltage applications. A power-limited tray cable (PLTC) is covered by Article 725 and is a factory assembly of two or more insulated conductors rated at 300 volts, enclosed in a non-metallic jacket. Low voltage wiring refers to insulated wire with non-metallic sheathing that transmits 50 volts or less of electricity. Unlike standard household wiring that carries 120–240 volts, low-voltage. Low voltage cabling forms the backbone of modern infrastructure, powering a range of low-energy systems such as data networks, security solutions Understanding Low Voltage Cabling Low voltage cabling forms the backbone of modern infrastructure, powering a range of low-energy systems such as data. maintain spacing or to keep cables in place when the tray is ect the minimum bend ra-dius for cables as they exit the bottom of the cable tray.
