Issues with the size of cable trenches for instrument control cables

2016-08-22View Original

Thread Content

Dear experts, I’ve been facing difficulties recently while designing the cable layout. I’m not sure how to determine the dimensions of the cable trench. Currently, I know that the trench will contain 24 two-core cables with a cross-sectional area of 1.5 square millimeters each, as well as 14 three-core cables with the same cross-sectional area. So how are the width and depth of this cable trench determined? Please, experts, help me out! ! ! Please attach the calculation method

Why do so few cables need to be placed in cable trenches? Currently, cable trays are the mainstream choice for electrical and instrumentation design

It’s too little, and it’s not heavy either – why not use a cable tray?

It’s better to use cable trays for easier maintenance

It is located within the oil tank area, and regulations stipulate that burial is the preferred method.
