What are some examples of a tee joint in the electrical trade?

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.


What is the diameter size of EMT conduit?

EMT is electrical metallic tubing. In the electrical trade there are nominal sizes expressed as a standard size. To answer your question you must state the conduit size in either electrical terms or in standard size terms to get a conversion size.For example standard size 1/2" EMT has an actual diameter size of 3/4" and the 1/2"EMT connector for the 1/2" EMT conduit needs a 7/8" hole.Likewise with 3/4" EMT the actual outside diameter is 15/16" and the 3/4" EMT connector needs a 1-1/8" hole.
