The cable trays consist of a thin metallic plate and electro-welded steel rods. Their construction is based on the international standard IEC 61537, which specifies the requirements for cable tray systems, tests, and specifications. Overview of Electrical Cable Tray Materials Aluminium cable trays are. These trays may be made of wire mesh, called "cable basket", or be designed in the form of a single central spine (rail) with ribs to support the cable on either side. Channel Tray provides an economical support for cable drops and branch cable runs from the backbone cable tray system. It's strong, durable, and can withstand a lot of wear and tear.
[pdf] Add view filters for the different cable trays –> Add the filter in the view –> Set the surface pattern as Solid Fill and set the color. Also the question is, how do you change the color of a model in Revit? Go to File in the top left. Click Options in the bottom right. I have several filters setup for cable tray colors and voltage levels. When i move or edit a cable tray Revit changes the parts of the cable tray i move in the model, back to color (white) from whatever color the filter is set. Changing the color of a cable tray in Revit requires a systematic approach to modify the appearance of the element within the project. Without materials applied directly to the elements, your exports stay grey.
