Slotted wire-duct routes for control-panel wiring layouts.

## In plain English

### What it does

A cable support carries and organises cables along a route. Trays, ladders, baskets and wiring ducts suit different cable sizes and locations.

### A simple example

In a switchroom, a cable ladder can carry power cables above the switchgear while smaller wiring ducts organise wires inside the panels.

### What the drawings help you do

Use the selected manufacturer's drawings to check the equipment's size, mounting points and cable connections. The layout helps you plan where it fits and how it can be reached for maintenance. An illustrative 3D preview does not establish product dimensions or required clearances.

### Terms

- Schematic: A drawing showing function and connections rather than physical appearance.

## What it represents

Draw the duct body and the removable cover separately from the usable wiring channel. Allow access where conductors leave the slots for terminals.
Use the linked manufacturer drawing or project mechanical files for dimensions and the exact selected revision. This original educational illustration is unitless and not to scale.

## How to read it

- Set corner treatment and cover-removal access.
- An outside duct width is not usable cable capacity; fill and conductor bending depend on the selected size and wiring.

## Information to show or reference

- Identify duct size and cover selection.
- Set corner treatment and cover-removal access.
- Check terminal approach and conductor segregation.

## Important distinction

An outside duct width is not usable cable capacity; fill and conductor bending depend on the selected size and wiring.
