The commissioning agents for the project have recently told us that this is against code, however in speaking with our fire alarm subcontractor they do not believe that to be the case -. en completely installed, without damage either to conductors orstructural system use maintain spacing or to keep cables in place when the tray is ect the minimum bend ra-dius for cables as they exit the bottom of the cable tray.
