Panduit CCPL2H7083-X 2-Hole Polymer Cable Cleat for 70-83mm Single Cable
The Panduit CCPL2H7083-X is a two-hole polymer cable cleat engineered for short-circuit fault protection in medium-voltage cable tray installations. Certified to IEC 61914:2015 and tested to withstand fault currents up to 85.4kA, this cleat secures single cables with outside diameters of 70-83mm against electromechanical forces during short-circuit events. Constructed from glass-reinforced polyamide with rounded edges to protect cable insulation, it mounts directly to cable tray rungs using two user-supplied M10 bolts. Suitable for data centers, industrial facilities, and utility substations where cable retention during fault conditions is critical to personnel safety and system uptime. Packaged 10 per box.

IEC 61914:2015 establishes test procedures for cable cleats subjected to the electromagnetic forces generated during three-phase short-circuit faults. The CCPL2H7083-X has been independently tested to withstand fault currents up to 85.4kA—a critical threshold for medium-voltage distribution systems where fault-current magnitudes can generate forces exceeding 100 Newtons per meter of cable run. Glass-reinforced polyamide offers a lighter-weight alternative to metallic cleats in less aggressive environments while maintaining structural integrity across a -40°C to +60°C operating range. The two-hole mounting pattern distributes cleat loads evenly across the cable tray rung, and the integrated ridge profile ensures the cable cannot roll or shift under electromechanical stress. Each cleat accommodates a single cable with an outside diameter between 70mm and 83mm, corresponding to large single-conductor or multi-conductor power cables in the 500-1000 MCM range.
Cable cleats are mandated by NEC Article 392.22 and IEC 60364-5-54 in installations where short-circuit currents exceed 10kA. Typical applications include data center electrical rooms with parallel-fed UPS systems, industrial plants with on-site generation or medium-voltage distribution, and utility substations. The 70-83mm cable range covers large power feeders commonly used in 480V to 15kV systems. Installation spacing is determined by fault-current magnitude, cable configuration, and clearance time; consult Panduit's cleat spacing calculator or IEC 61914 Annex B for site-specific guidance. The polymer construction offers corrosion resistance in indoor environments and weighs significantly less than equivalent aluminum or stainless-steel cleats, reducing installation labor and structural load on cable tray systems. Each carton contains 10 cleats—enough for a typical 10-foot cable tray run when spaced per manufacturer guidelines.
Third-party certification to IEC 61914:2015 provides documentary evidence for AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction) acceptance and liability protection in the event of a fault-related cable failure. Unlike generic cable ties or non-certified restraints, the CCPL2H7083-X's test report specifies peak fault current, clearing time, and maximum cable displacement—data required for engineering submittals on projects subject to IEEE, NFPA, or international electrical codes. The 10-pack format aligns with typical rung spacing in standard cable tray sections, minimizing material waste and simplifying project takeoffs for electrical contractors and data center build teams.
