Formula used to calculate communications wire fill capacity - Numbers of wires = duct / {1/4 x 3.14 x (wire o.d.)2} x 0.4 or
0.6. Per ANSI/TIA/EIA-569-A-:
SPEC = 40% fill which is recommended for planning perimeter pathways
MAX (for data) = 60% fill which is allowed to accommodate unplanned additions after initial installation
MAX (for power) = Maximum number determined by UL temperature testing
Note: It is recommended to place electrical cables loosely in raceway
The adhesive strip may serve only as a positioning aid during installation. The raceway shall be secured by mechanical
fastening.
