  • Can low-voltage fiber optic cables be laid inside cable trays

    Can low-voltage fiber optic cables be laid inside cable trays

    Properly fiber rated fiber cables can use the same cable tray or raceway with conductors for electric light, power or Class 1 circuits 600V or less. The main concern for planning indoor fiber cable routes is to avoid any cutting edges and sharp bends. This includes corners and exit. The existing 2" conduit contains 4x 1/0 XLPE cable (rated for direct-burial), so I plan on pulling outdoor rated, non-metallic fiber through the same conduit. Installation of the cable must be carefully done to prevent snagging and kinking the cable as it is pulled among the numerous hazards in a typical building installation. Fiber optic cables should.
