The mounting of the support systems for the cable tray systems takes
place according to the local circumstances and the planned loads. The
mounting of the different support systems is shown in special mounting
instructions, see “1.6 Applicable documents” on page 6.
The mounting drawings of the screw-on cable tray systems show either
perforated or unperforated cable trays. All the connectors, fittings and
accessories shown can be mounted on both perforated and unperforated
cable trays. If unperforated cable trays are cut, then the connector
perforation must be re-drilled.
