When it comes to the installation of steel cable management systems, there isn’t a ‘one finish
fits all’ approach that contractors or consultants can take. Therefore, it’s vitally important that the
system to be installed has received the correct treatment to operate effectively in its environment.
Nigel Leaver at Legrand discusses the available options.
O
ne of the first considerations
during specification must be
to determine the elements a
cable management system will
be exposed to. The location of
the installation and the position
of the cable management
system, whether internal or external, are
important as this will impact how robust
the system needs to be, especially
for marine environments, coastal
installations, or industrial settings where
there may be corrosive elements.
