IEC 61084-2-1:2017 specifies requirements and tests for cable trunking systems (CTS) and cable ducting systems (CDS) intended for the accommodation, and where necessary for the electrically protective separation, of insulated conductors, cables and possibly other electrical equipment in electrical and/or communication systems installations. The maximum voltage of these installations is 1 000 V AC and 1 500 V DC.
These systems are intended for mounting on walls and/or ceilings. They can be embedded, installed in a flush or semi-flush state, surface mounted or mounted away from the surface using fixing devices.
This document does not apply to conduit systems, cable tray systems, cable ladder systems, power track systems or equipment covered by other standards.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1996. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
- classification;
- construction;
- mechanical and electrical properties.
This International Standard is to be used in conjunction with IEC 61084-1:2017.
