Grounding: Metallic trays can serve as equipment grounding conductors (EGC) if they meet NEC requirements. There is no restriction as to where the cable tray system is installed. The metal in cable trays may be used as the EGC as per the limitations. However, any installation must adhere strictly to the National Electrical Code (NEC) standards. This compliance is not merely a regulatory formality; it significantly enhances the safety and reliability of the electrical system, ensuring that installations can pass inspections and function. en completely installed, without damage either to conductors or structural system use 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. The Equipment Grounding Conductor is the electrical circuit's safety conductor.
