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.

Is it legal to support a conduit from another conduit of the same size?
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.
What is the different between steel conduit over plastic 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.
What do conduit connectors do?
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.
What are the main principles concerning conduit bodies?
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.
What is the multiplier for 45 degree offset in conduit bending?
Back set for all conduit sizes is not the same. The greater the diameter of the conduit the length of back set increases. Without the diameter size of the conduit, an answer can not be given.
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 must be attached to the top end of a conduit riser where conduit is used in a service?
A service head or LB fitting must be attached to the top end of a conduit riser where conduit is used in a service. This provides a termination point for the conduit and allows for easy access to the conductors inside the conduit.
When do you use a conduit bushing?
A conduit bushing is typically used to protect electrical wiring from damage as it passes through a metal enclosure or conduit fitting. It helps prevent the sharp edges of the conduit from damaging the insulation of the wires and provides a smooth surface for the wires to pass through, reducing the risk of abrasion or short circuits.
Which conduit is best - PVC or MS conduit?
For underground conduit runs, PVC is by far the better of the two conduit systems.
When did The Conduit happen?
The Conduit happened in 2009.
