General notes
Prior to installation strike a line of trunking using a plumb and
chalk line for vertical, and spirit levels for horizontal runs.
Fixing
Cut and fix the continuous carrier at not more than 500mm
centres along its entire length and not more than 100mm
from the end of a run, and at intersection with other systems.
Locate and secure, with a minimum of two screws, the carrier
for flat angles, external angles, internal angles and flat tees.
Close butt to the carrier using internal couplers – see 5.
Cable segregation
Further segregation within the single or two compartment
trunking can be achieved during or following the installation
by inserting the appropriate size of Mini-trunking sections. Fit
the socket insertion units, install the conductors and cable
runs and draw the conductors through. Fix the clip on cover
using the back up couplers at the intersections.
The couplers can also serve as cable retaining straps prior to
the cover being fitted. Stagger the joints in the cover with the
joints in the carrier and offset by 50mm. Bond the end stop to
the main trunking using
Egaweld PLUS solvent weld
