Seismic Fixture Clamps from ERICO® Secure Luminaires to the T-BarThe CADDY SFCLT Seismic Fixture Clamps attach fixtures securely to the ceiling frame member. 
The CADDY® SFCLT Seismic Fixture Clamps attach fixtures securely to the ceiling frame member. These cost-effective reinforcing clamps prevent the T-bar from twisting and disconnecting at the T-Bar intersections in a seismic event. The reusable clamps also prevent the fixture from separating from the T-bar framework and will withstand the force of a standard fire hose.
The CADDY SFCLT complies with ICBO® Acceptance Criteria 184 (AC184), which mandates positive rigid attachment between the main runner, cross runner and light fixture.
The CADDY SFCLT family of fixture clamps consists of connectors for 2’ x 4’ and 2’ x 2’ light fixtures, as well as for end-to-end and side-by-side connections of light fixtures and for reinforcement of T-Bar main runner joints. In addition, they can be used to secure 2’ x 2’ air diffusers.
Each clamp is secured to the fixture and the T-Bar with two screws. Use of the clamps eliminates the need for two slack wires. The rated load of the CADDY SFCLT is 10 times the weight of a standard 30-lb light fixture. The clamp is designed to work together with the T-Bar runners to provide seismic restraint for the fixture without additional chains or cables attached to the fixture itself.
The product has been tested for compliance to IBC®, UBC, NEC®, NBC and CEC®. It is listed by Warnock Hersey and ETL®, conforms to UL® 1598 and is certified to CSA® C22.2 No. 9.0-96 (Component Only). CADDY SFCLT Fixture Clamps meet U.S. building-code and electrical-code specifications. Independent from seismic applications, the CADDY SFCLT clamps may be used to satisfy the requirement of NEC 410.16(C) for secure fastening of luminaires (fixtures), complying with Acceptance Criteria 184.
