How to choose the right cable channel?
When choosing a cable duct, you should consider both material, design and application requirements.
Take into account:
- Type of channel: slotted, solid or knockout
- Material: PVC (Iboco) or halogen-free (Unex / Licatec)
- Number and type of cables (power, signal, data)
- Available space in the control cabinet
- Requirements for separation between power and signal cables
- Need for future expansion
Choosing a slightly larger cable duct than the initial need provides better flexibility, easier service and fewer reconstructions over time.
