[QUOTE="thendzor, post: 503175, member: 33283"] Morning, We are building storage warehouses and our electricians always insist on installing cable tray systems for distributing the lights saying that cable needs to be mechanically protected. When I have questioned them if they can refer it to any standard, but nobody knows the answer... I would prefer to distribute the cables along the bottom purlins (see below) and fix them with cable ties as this will save me a lot of money. In my personal opinion, this will be better than some thin cable tray. Can you please advise if this can be done as I proposed and it will conform to UK standards? Thanks!
