Panduit CCPL1H1013-X Polymer Cable Cleat - IEC 61914 Certified Short-Circuit Protection
The Panduit CCPL1H1013-X is a one-hole polymer cable cleat engineered for reliable short-circuit fault containment in data centers, UPS installations, and industrial power distribution systems. Certified to IEC 61914:2015 and tested to 69.5kA peak fault current, this cleat mechanically secures single cables with 10-13mm outside diameter (0.39-0.51 inches) to cable tray rungs using a single M10 bolt. Glass-filled nylon construction delivers the mechanical strength required for medium-fault applications while offering rounded edges that protect cable insulation from cutting or abrasion during installation and fault events. Sold in packs of 10, these cleats provide integrators with a cost-effective solution for IEC-compliant cable retention across racks, ladder trays, and perforated cable pathways.
Key Features
- IEC 61914:2015 certified cable cleat tested to 69.5kA peak short-circuit fault current
- Glass-filled nylon construction balances mechanical strength with cable insulation protection
- Single M10 bolt mounting directly to cable tray rungs - no additional brackets required
- 10-13mm cable diameter range (0.39-0.51 inches) accommodates common power and distribution cables
- Rounded edges prevent insulation damage during installation and dynamic fault loading
- Interlock feature between top and bottom cleat halves prevents rotation under load
- Internal ridges maintain cable position and resist axial movement during fault conditions
- Operating temperature range -40°C to +60°C (-40°F to +140°F) suits most indoor and sheltered outdoor installations
- Black glass-filled nylon finish integrates visually with standard cable tray and rack infrastructure
- Package quantity: 10 cleats per pack for multi-run installations and inventory efficiency
IEC 61914:2015 compliance is critical for installations subject to international electrical codes, insurance requirements, or jurisdictions adopting IEC standards. During a short-circuit fault, electromagnetic forces can generate cable movement exceeding several meters per second - without mechanical restraint, cables can whip loose from supports, contact adjacent conductors, or strike personnel. The CCPL1H1013-X cleat was third-party tested to withstand the peak mechanical forces generated by fault currents up to 69.5kA, ensuring cables remain clamped to the tray even under the extreme dynamic loading that occurs in the first few milliseconds of a fault. This fault-current rating makes the cleat suitable for UPS battery strings, PDU feeder circuits, and switchgear interconnections in medium-duty commercial and light industrial environments where available fault current is known and controlled.
Installation is straightforward: position the cleat bottom half on the cable tray rung, route the cable through the channel, snap the top half into place using the interlock tabs, and torque the M10 bolt through the center hole into the tray rung or user-supplied nut plate. The rounded internal edges and cable-retention ridges allow the cleat to grip the cable jacket firmly without cutting into insulation - important for maintaining cable integrity and avoiding ground faults or moisture ingress over the life of the installation. Glass-filled nylon was chosen over metal for applications where weight, corrosion resistance, and dielectric isolation matter more than absolute mechanical strength; these cleats perform well in controlled indoor environments like server rooms, telecom closets, and climate-controlled equipment vaults where corrosive atmospheres and extreme UV exposure are not factors.
Panduit offers this cleat as part of a 10-part series spanning 10mm to 57mm cable diameters, allowing integrators to specify the correct cleat size for each cable run rather than over-sizing or under-sizing restraints. When quoting UPS upgrades, data center expansions, or electrical room retrofits that require IEC-compliant cable retention, this cleat delivers certified short-circuit protection with a known, tested fault-current rating and a material-and-design combination proven in thousands of commercial installations worldwide.
