What is a cable cleat? Cable cleats are devices designed and tested to ensure the retention and support of cables, and have been used for many years all over the world. However, it was not until 2003 with the emergence of the standard EN 50368 being released, that any standard for cable cleats existed. This standard not only highlighted the retention and support that cable cleats provided to cables, but more importantly it highlighted the protection of the cable management system and the potential risk to human life without the use of cable cleats. Prior to EN 50368 both cable and cable cleat...

Why use a cable cleat? CMP cable cleats are designed to ensure the retention and support of cables and conductors, reducing the load that the cable may be exposed to under its own weight. By ensuring the cables are fixed, retained and supported correctly this also protects all of the cable terminations by reducing the mechanical load exerted on them. CMP cable cleats are also designed and tested so that in the event of short circuit fault conditions, they will contain the cables without causing damage; enabling the circuit to be restored once the fault has been rectified. The latest standard...

l Reduce the mechanical load a cable may be exposed to due to electrical fault conditions. Can I use a circuit breaker instead of cable cleats? Although circuit breakers are capable of instantaneous protection, damage to the cables under fault conditions occurs within the first quarter cycle of the fault. Within this period of time the circuit breaker cannot open to suspend the fault, resulting in cable management system damage. A typical circuit breaker interrupts the fault after three cycles. Whilst this may protect the equipment, the cables however may have already been damaged within this...
