Cable tray

Bluedog225 · May 1, 2023

Do you electrical guys think this box will make a good cable tray? It’s only $20.

Thanks

Cool. Thanks.

A little ahead of my schedule but at Restore, things go quick.

That's a steal for $20.

Are those boxes behind it, more of them?

Buy a lottery ticket on the way home!

Bluedog225 · May 1, 2023

I‘m pretty sure the boxes are something else. I’ll check when I go to pick it up.

Bluedog225 · May 1, 2023

This was the only one. I love getting a deal.

Bluedog225 · May 7, 2023

Got this home and opened it up. Can anyone tell me what these attachment points are called? Or what attaches to them? Thanks

timselectric · May 7, 2023

Doesn't look familiar to me.

Never seen that. But yes that a good deal.

Never seen that before but appears you can run zip ties to hold the cables cleanly.

This is the way.

Great idea. Thanks

Looks like a connection box for a CT Scanner or something similar. The electrician installs the box and wiring to it from the source, and the manufacturer terminates their cables in it, often with a few splices.

I never thought I would be jealous of somebody finding a big metal box at a thrift store, but here we are.

Here I am wondering if I drop $300 for 8"x8"x 60" wire trough or $280 for a 6x6x48

cs1234 · May 7, 2023

For $20 more, if it fits, I know what I would be getting.

Lt.Dan · May 7, 2023

I would definitely get the bigger of the 2, if it fits.

I could SOOOO make use of a few boxes like that on projects. Great find.
