💥READ THIS BEFORE YOU BUY CABLE FOR YOUR LONG ISLAND JOBS💥 Tray Cable on the Job: TC, TC-ER, PLTC, ITC – What You Actually Need to Know You want fewer callbacks? Cleaner installs? Less BS from inspectors? Then stop winging it and start picking the right tray cable based on circuit class and environment — not guesswork. Here’s the quick punch: TC = power & control, basic workhorse. TC-ER = TC with exposed-run privileges. Think drops to motors outside the tray. ITC = low-energy instrumentation. PLTC = Class 2/3 power-limited systems. Size your conductors right with 310.16 and termination rules from 110.14(C). Don't screw up motor circuits — use 430.22 and 430.52. Want clean analog signals? Shield that loop, bond it right, and keep it away from VFD noise. Don't buy bulk cable 'til you check with the AHJ. Long Island's a patchwork of rules — get burned once and you'll never forget. Bottom line: The cable you pick determines if your job flies through inspection or eats your profit on rework. You want to build fast, safe, and tight? Master tray cable.
