Conduit fitting is used on metal pipes that house electrical wires. These fittings are not only to connect the various pieces together, but to keep a relatively water tight seal to the wires.
No, the conduit has to be supported individually from a supportive structure. The spacing of the strapping is related to the size of the conduit.
Steel conduit weighs more, provides more protection, and costs more than plastic conduit. Plastic conduit weighs less, is easier to work with, and costs less than steel conduit.
A conduit connecter is a connecting piece used to connect two individual conduit units together. Conduit connecters can refer to both electrical conduits and pipe/plumbing related conduits.
Conduit bodies are used to provide pulling access in a run of conduit, to conserve space where a full size bend radius would be impractical, to allow more bends to be made in a section of conduit or to split a conduit path into multiple directions.
No, the bare copper grounding conductor can not be in a conduit with other conductors. It can be in conduit by itself to provide mechanical protection for the wire.
A tee joint in the electrical trade is a conduit fitting. It is used in conduit work where there needs to be a device connected into the main conduit run. An example of this is where a light switch needs to be installed into the conduit run. The main conduit run starts at the distribution panel and proceeds to a lighting fixture. On the way a switch is needed to operate the light fixture. In the main conduit run a tee fitting is installed so as to pick up the switch for the fixture. When the conduit system is complete the wire is then drawn in. The "hot" conductor is pulled to the tee fitting and then diverts to the switch box to pick up the switch and then back up the same conduit to the tee fitting and then on to the lighting fixture. Splices are not usually made in tee fittings.
Conduit wiring is synonymous to wires in a pipe.
For underground conduit runs, PVC is by far the better of the two conduit systems.
The Conduit happened in 2009.

i love Conduit!! bring it on online!!!
yep, conduit 2 April 5th

Conduit - comics - was created in 1994.
Hobson's Conduit was created in 1614.
An electrical conduit is a tube used to protect and route electrical wiring in a building or nonbuilding structure. Electrical conduit may be made of metal, plastic, fiber, or fired clay. Most conduit is rigid, but flexible conduit is used for some purposes.
