Earthquake Resistance of Cable Trays in Africa

Earthquake Resistance of Cable Trays in Africa

Cable tray and conduit systems have an excellent earthquake performance record. This has been evidenced at over 70 power and industrial facilities in 14 past major earthquakes, and is reinforced by shake table test data and detailed analyses. Earthquakes and seismic events can cause severe damage to electrical infrastructure, including cable trays, leading to outages and even safety hazards. Seismic forces are generated by the movement of the Earth's crust during an earthquake. A method is developed for utilizing this data in defensible, simple seismic qualification criteria and configuration controls. During an earthquake, cable trays are exposed not only to gravity loads and normal service loads, but also to lateral movement, vertical acceleration, vibration, and building drift.

Fire prevention between layers of vertical cable trays

Fire prevention between layers of vertical cable trays

Stopping the fire inside the tray is the most effective way to prevent broader system impacts. Direct Low Pressure (DLP) clean agent systems offer a practical solution for detecting and suppressing fires inside cable trays. 7 products are successfully used to protect cables in high-rise buildings, industrial buildings, and offshore facilities as well as in sensitive areas, such as hospitals, airports, production. The current version of ISO 14520-1 (Gaseous Fire-Extinguishing Systems, Physical Properties and System Design, Part 1: General Requirements) requires only wood crib fire extinguishment testing for the establishment of minimum Class A design concentrations. Safety of a cable tray is not a matter of compliance with codes, but a matter of saving human life and billions of dollars' worth of infrastructure. Poorly fitted trays may serve as a fuse in case of a short or a top chimney in case of a fire.
