Cable Retainer without central divider installed.
The divider and cable retainer interlock should be installed
together whenever the divider is used.
Divider – To achieve the correct fit a portion of the divider
needs to be removed prior to fitting. The divider is formed
with a series of depth gauge lines to assist when cutting.
These also serve to determine the correct cut out when using
outlet boxes. Having prepared the cut outs as required push
fit the divider into the preformed groove in the internal corner
of the trunking.
Cable Retainer – Incorporate as many cable retainers as
required to provide restraint and support for cables. This is
particularly critical when trunking is mounted overhead in a
downward facing position. These should be no more than
600mm centres maximum and within 100mm of an end or
corner. The cable retainer is supplied with a series of shallow
slots. Use the centre slot to engage the outer cut edge of the
cable divider. The legs of the cable retainer engage behind
the projections within the large compartment.
Determine location of outlets and select correct depth box.
Remove knockouts to suit cable entry. Push fit brass terminal
(K3716) if required into the aperture in the base of the box.
Drill the large compartment walls using the drill guide
groove to allow cables to feed when supplying from small
compartment. Press and clip box into the trunking body
engaging the rear projections. Note: Where dividers are
installed they need to be reduced to accommodate the
selected depth box. Adjacent boxes should not be more than
25mm apart.
