Do you use EMT or Rigid conduit in restaurant?
It depends upon the construction of the building as to what type of electrical system is used. If the building is of a wood frame then ordinary home wiring system can be used. If the use of steel studs is involved then BX has to be used for the internal wiring. Where the cables come out of the walls to equipment, they have to be mechanically protected with conduit or flexible conduit. If the building is block or brick and the wiring system has to be installed on the surface, the system has to be conduit. If the installation is not engineered and no stipulation as to what type of conduit system has to be used, then go with EMT. EMT systems are labour and material wise cheaper than a threaded rigid system. To make the job look professional you need to hire someone that is good at bending EMT conduit. Ask to see other jobs that the contractor has done before letting out the contract.
