I have always added two
I don't think I've ever seen them specced, although I've never installed a trunking system which relied on the containment as a CPC. Of course it still needs to be continuous, but if you bolt it all together properly it should be continuous anyway.
Somehow I knew you were going to say that.You make it sound as if the use of metal containment system, for CPC requirements is bad practice or inferior. It's neither, in fact the metal containment alone, will be far more superior than the daft CPC's your pulling into that containment system. lol!!
Anything for an easy life these day's by the sound of it!! Copper straps have been spec'ed by the manufactures of metallic trunking ever since i can remember, it make you wonder why these manufacturers bother to make/provide them for their trunking systems. I have always added two, and i don't care a rat's arse what the Reg's state or don't state. If a job's worth doing, it's worth doing to the best possible standard!! And any metal containment system that i'm involved with, won't have any need for separate CPC's to be pulled in either!!
