Reliable grounding of galvanized cable trays
Copper stranded wire, galvanized flat steel, or metal components used to install supports along the cable trays can serve as the main grounding conductor. The metal in cable trays may be used as the EGC as per the limitations. In cabling projects, common wiring methods include overhead lines, cables, steel pipes, cable trays, and busbars. For systems with 110kV and above, where the neutral point is effectively grounded, the metal sheath of single-core cables should be directly connected to the substation grounding. The core requirements for Cable Tray grounding, as per GB 50303-2015, GB 51348-2019, and CECS 31-2023, can be summarized as "metals must be grounded, connections must ensure conductivity, and multiple points must ensure reliability". The specific provisions and implementation points are as follows:. Cable tray wiring systems have excellent safety and dependability records.
