HarrySlother Member Location Iowa Occupation Electrical Engineer May 23, 2025 #2 See 392.80 for the ampacity rules of tray. It depends on the conductor types, spacing, and if there's a cover. If you're terminating within equipment on either end of the run, be sure to limit the ampacity by 110.14 (C) (1).
