[QUOTE="Art Welter, post: 81496, member: 52"] Re: Vertical raceway for socapex Hi Phil, I don't see separation of the raceway from conduit mentioned in the attached NEC rules that seem relevant, nor does it a appear a raceway is required. It does appear multiconductor cords are to be on insulators not more than 10 feet apart. I have not seen that done on any temporary installation, standard practice is a spanset around the socopex bundle hanging from the truss or fly bar. Never heard of an electrical inspector not going for that, but have not been looking. To be compliant with the NEC rule you could rig a vertical pipe or small truss and have spansets support the socopex every 10' from pipe clamps. [/QUOTE]
