Hi Folks,

   Responding to the best way to protect wires on a Multi-Pole Mount, we
used galvanized 7/8” Unistrut attached to the bottom side of rack
horizontally and top module to bottom module vertically for series
connections between modules.  The horizontal strut had the side benefit of
keeping each column aligned with the next as there was now a physical
connection between columns.  Our AHJ liked it, although it was above 8’, so
was not technically required.  I agree that racking makers could do a better
job on this wire protection issue.

 

Regards,
