Hi,

Had a look at a job today and there is an swa swinging from one side of the warehouse to the other providing power to machinery.

They have had another electrician quote to chase the swa into the concrete base. I can't see how he can chase any deeper than enough to cover the swa.

Where do we stand regulation wise, as my approaches was to fix a cross beam across to support or run around the warehouse to the machinery.
 
Or use a wire to hang the cable from?
 
If I run around the building it's a lot of work and all high level.

I could get a crossbar braced to the wall and a support leg bolted down to the floor. That was my other approach.

Could I clamp support wire high level lowered down and the cable zip tired to that, of course the wire would be clamped and tight both ends.
 
You could girder clip it across the factory, get a mobile lifter in. Tel's approach with the tray would also work well. Grinding the floor is a bit overkill, what size is the armoured?
