What type of elbow should be used to connect cable trays in floors

Metal elbows for cable trays are specialized components designed for electrical installations, allowing for efficient and safe routing of cable pathways at corners. Elbows are directional changes, typically 45 deg or 90 deg, used to navigate corners horizontally or change elevation vertically (risers). Common cable tray fittings include cable tray elbows, tees, crosses, bends, risers, reducers, bolts and nuts, locks, expansion screws, supporting brackets, suspension rods, cross arms, bases, connecting plates, covers, fixings, cable cleats, and system dividers.
