Struct as wireway

[fd3030]

Can unistruct or kindrof channel be used as a wireway with caps and covers? Hanging track lights on a non-continous run of channel.

Absolutely; it is specifically listed as such, and covers are available for the 'open' side.

Yep. See article 384.

Just for clarification, unistrut would be considered a Strut-Type Channel Raceway (Article 384) and not a wireway (Article 376).

But yes, unistrut can be used as a raceway provided that it is listed as such and installed in accordance with Article 384.

Careful, not all unistrut is listed for use as a raceway.

Correct, I believe that it is only the solid unistrut that is listed for use as a raceway and that the slotted strut is not, but I could be mistaken.
