18、ISSION FROM UL INTRODUCTION 1 Scope 1.1 These requirements cover surface metal raceways and ttings for use in accordance with the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70. 1.2 Raceways of the following thicknesses are intended to enclose circuits operating at potentials not exceeding 600 volts between cond

19、uctors: a) Raceways that are entirely of metal at least 0.040 inch (1.02 mm) thick nominal and b) Raceways consisting of nonmetallic covers on metal bases of the thickness indicated in (a). Thinner all-metal raceways or raceways of thinner metal bases with nonmetallic covers are intended to enclose

20、circuits operating at potentials lower than 300 volts between conductors. 1.3 These requirements do not cover cable trays, wireways or nonmetallic raceways. 2 Components 2.1 Except as indicated in 2.2, a component of a product covered by this standard shall comply with the requirements for that comp

21、onent. See Appendix A for a list of standards covering components used in the products covered by this standard. 2.2 A component is not required to comply with a specic requirement that: a) Involves a feature or characteristic not required in the application of the component in the product covered b

22、y this standard, or b) Is superseded by a requirement in this standard. 2.3 A component shall be used in accordance with its rating established for the intended conditions of use. 2.4 Specic components are incomplete in construction features or restricted in performance capabilities. Such components

23、 are intended for use only under limited conditions, such as certain temperatures not exceeding specied limits, and shall be used only under those specic conditions.

26、 devices or accessories are to be installed as intended and examined with regard to the feasibility of installation, as well as for compliance with the construction, performance, and marking requirements in this standard. Attention is to be given to items that require particular care on the part of

27、the raceway installer. 6 Nonmetallic Parts 6.1 A nonmetallic cover, tting or other part of a metal raceway shall comply with the applicable requirements in the Standard for Nonmetallic Surface Raceways and Fittings, UL 5A. 7 Glossary 7.1 For the purposes of this standard, the following denitions app

33、 raceway system shall comply with the requirements for the construction, performance, and use of that element. 8.3 A raceway shall consist of one or more pieces formed and constructed to make the raceway readily distinguishable from electrical conduit, electrical metallic tubing, electrical nonmetal

34、lic tubing, and other raceway systems. 8.4 A raceway system shall provide a complete enclosure that protects the wires installed therein against damage. The complete system, when installed as intended, shall comply with the following: a) There shall not be any openings that exceed 1/16 inch (1.59 mm

35、) in width on surfaces that are accessible following installation of the system. b) A knockout or break-away tab shall completely cover the opening in which it is located, and the clearance between the knockout or break-away tab and the opening shall not be more than 0.030 inch (0.76 mm). c) Mountin

36、g holes having a maximum diameter of 9/32 inch (7.1 mm), or slotted openings for mounting of one dimension not larger than 5/8 inch (15.9 mm) and the other dimension not larger than 1/8 inch (3.2 mm), provided on the raceway base or tting base surface that is installed ush with the mounting surface,

37、 are not prohibited. d) A partition in a raceway system shall not have any openings through which wires are capable of being passed, intentionally or otherwise, from one compartment to another. Exception No. 1: A gap of 1/8 inch (3.2 mm) shall be used only when means is provided to completely contai

38、n conductors in their individual compartments, such as wire retaining clips. Exception No. 2: On lengths of surface metal raceway provided with openings that are intended for wiring devices, ttings or accessories, those openings are not required to be blocked by knockouts or break-away tabs where th
