In general, vertical spacing for cable trays should be 30 cm (12 in), measured from the bottom of the upper tray to the top of the lower tray. The spacing between trays, whether horizontal or vertical, depends on various factors like cable type, environment, and tray material. Proper installation can significantly reduce electromagnetic interference, prevent fire hazards, and improve overall efficiency. Although BS 7671 touches on the subject of cable supports, it does not detail specifically what these support distances should be. The cable tray is installed in parallel with the general process pipe (such as compressed air pipe) not less than 400 mm.
