9.10.2 REQUIREMENTS

An assessment of any hazards identified with the equipment and the operation with which it is

involved should be performed to assure safe operation of components in the cable/utility

management system. Where any cable/utility runs include hazardous fluids or pressurized

gases, the utilization of these utilities with the cables involved must be determined to be safe.

Metallic cable/utility management systems that support electrical conductors shall be grounded

or bonded to the equipment. Grounding integrity should be checked by inspection by a qualified

worker for all components with exposed metal parts. This inspection should be documented.

Where cable/utility management systems are installed exclusively for electrical/electronic

equipment usage and where these trays are metallic and not grounded or bonded, approved

documentation shall exist stating the reason for not grounding or bonding the system (See

Section 9.3.1).
