Definition
The ratio the space occupied by
all the cables conduit trunking
to the whole space enclosed the
conduit trunking known the
space factor. Fire barriers must fitted inside the trunking
every 5m, every floor level room dividing wall, this shorter
distance, shown Fig.29(b) shows cables woven through
insulated pin supports, which one method supporting vertical cables. Where cable enclosure greater than 32mm required because
of the number size the conductors, generally more economical
and convenient use trunking.
Where trunking installed vertically, the installed conductors must be
supported that the maximum unsupported length non-sheathed
cable does not exceed 5m. Figure 14.29(a).

Guide only gives factors for conduits 32mm diameter, which
would indicate that conduits larger than this are not frequent com-
mon use. 14.Electrical installations and wiring systems

Where any trunking passes through walls, partitions, ceilings floors,
short lengths lid should fitted that the remainder the lid may
be removed later without difficulty.
TRUNKING CAPACITIES
The ratio the space occupied all the cables conduit trunking to
the whole space enclosed the conduit trunking known the space

Installation trunking: (a) fire barriers trunking and (b) cable supports vertical trunking.
PVC insulated cables are usually drawn into erected conduit installa-
