кабельный канал
Кабельным каналом называется закрытое и заглубленное (частично или полностью) в грунт, пол, перекрытие и т. п. непроходное сооружение, предназначенное для размещения в нем кабелей, укладку, осмотр и ремонт которых возможно производить лишь при снятом перекрытии.
[ПУЭ. Раздел 2]

кабельный канал
Элемент системы электропроводки, расположенный над землей или полом или в земле или в полу, открытый, вентилируемый или замкнутый, размеры которого не позволяют вход людей, но обеспечивают доступ к трубам и (или) кабелям по всей длине в процессе монтажа и после него.

cable channel
element of a wiring system above or in the ground or floor, open, ventilated or closed, and having dimensions which do not permit the entry of persons but allow access to the conduits and/or cables throughout their length during and after installation
NOTE – A cable channel may or may not form part of the building construction.

caniveau, m
élément de canalisation situé au-dessus ou dans le sol ou le plancher, ouvert, ventilé ou fermé, ayant des dimensions ne permettant pas aux personnes d'y circuler, mais dans lequel les conduits ou câbles sont accessibles sur toute leur longueur, pendant et après installation
NOTE – Un caniveau peut ou non faire partie de la construction du bâtiment.

Кабельные каналы:
а — лотковый типа ЛК; б — из сборных плит типа СК:

1 — лоток; 2 — плита перекрытия; 3 — подготовка; 4 — плита стеновая; 5 — основание

Высота кабельных каналов в свету не ограничивается, но бывает не более 1200 мм. Ширина каналов определяется в зависимости от размеров применяемых кабельных конструкций из условия сохранения прохода не менее 300 мм при глубине канала до 600 мм, 450 мм — от более 600 до 900 мм, 600 мм при более 900 мм.
Полы в каналах выполняют с уклоном не менее 0,5% в сторону водосборников или ливневой канализации.
Для крепления кабельных конструкций в стенах каналов через каждые 0,8—1 м (по длине) устанавливают закладные детали. При заводском изготовлении стеновых панелей детали устанавливают на предприятии-изготовителе. Закладные детали в каналах глубиной до 600 мм располагают в один ряд, при большей глубине каналов — в два ряда.
В местах поворота и разветвления трассы устраивают уширительные камеры, размеры которых выбирают с учетом допускаемого радиуса изгиба прокладываемого кабеля.

SUBJECT AREA: Mechanical, pneumatic and hydraulic engineering

[br]

b. 17 July 1852 Newburyport, Massachusetts, USA

d. 6 January 1935 Hartford, Connecticut, USA

[br]

American mechanical engineer and metrologist, co-developer of the Rogers- Bond Comparator.

[br]

After leaving school at the age of 17, George Bond taught in local schools for a few years before starting an apprenticeship in a machine shop in Grand Rapids, Michigan. He then worked as a machinist with Phoenix Furniture Company in that city until his savings permitted him to enter the Stevens Institute of Technology at Hoboken, New Jersey, in 1876. He graduated with the degree of Mechanical Engineer in 1880. In his final year he assisted William A.Rogers, Professor of Astronomy at Harvard College Observatory, Cambridge, Massachusetts, in the design of a comparator for checking standards of length. In 1880 he joined the Pratt \& Whitney Company, Hartford, Connecticut, and was Manager of the Standards and Gauge Department from then until 1902. During this period he developed cylindrical, calliper, snap, limit, thread and other gauges. He also designed the Bond Standard Measuring Machine. Bond was elected a member of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers in 1881 and of the American Society of Civil Engineers in 1887, and served on many of their committees relating to standards and units of measurement.
