Basis and limits
- Source: Blitz Systems NEMA Cable Ladder data sheet. All values and product codes are as printed on that sheet.
- Load values were obtained by the manufacturer through testing to NEMA VE 1-2009. Load capacities were determined using single-span testing.
- The data sheet gives one safe working load table for each class. It is applied here to all four widths of that class.
- Only the tabulated spans are offered: 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0 m for Nema 1, and 4.0, 4.5, 5.0 and 6.0 m for Nema 2, 3 and 4. Values are not interpolated or extrapolated.
- Deflection is not given. The data sheet does not tabulate deflections for the ladder.
- The utilisation compares the cable load entered with the safe working load. The data sheet does not say whether the weight of the ladder is included.
- Nema 1 is listed in 3 m lengths and Nema 2, 3 and 4 in 6 m lengths. Finish is hot dip galvanised to AS/NZS 4680:2025 as stated on the data sheet.
- Not covered: supports, trapezes, threaded rod and fixings; point loads; fire-rated ladder and fire-rated installations.
- Preliminary selection only. Confirm the final design with Blitz Systems.
