THE PURPOSE OF A BICON CABLE CLEAT The requirements of the IEE Wiring Regulations state that “Every
cable or conductor used as a fixed wiring shall be supported in
such a way that it is not exposed to undue mechanical strain” .
BICON Cable Cleats meet this requirement with the added bonus
that they also enable a neat and orderly installation to be
achieved.
A range of
BICON Cable Cleats is available to fix cables to a
variety of surfaces – including ladder, tray, channel, concrete
or masonry. Design features include ease of installation, the
ability to accept a wide range of cable diameters, compact
proportions and the facility for either double or multi-stacked
arrangements to save space.
BICON Cable Cleats are made from
various materials to suit the environment and to be compatible
with the cable sheaths. In addition, they must be capable of
resisting the mechanical loads of the system and of providing
the necessary restraint if a short circuit fault were to occur
within the system.
BICON Cable Clamps satisfy all the above criteria, and items are
available to suit the most hostile of environments. For example,
certain cleats can withstand temperature excursions up to 1000°C
for up to two hours.
All sizes of the more commonly used cables can be accommodated
with most
BICON Cable Clamps, offering a range-take capability
second to none. For example, the
BICON Telcleat range comprises
just eight sizes, which both simplifies ordering and stocking,
and also enables technicians to carry sufficient quantities of
the various sizes around with them to enable the job to be
completed quickly.
