Usually in the industry, we call it metal conduits. Metallic conduit is stronger, more durable, and more fire-resistant than non-metallic conduit. It is often used in industrial, commercial, and hazardous environments. Which included,
Rigid Metal Conduit(RMC)
Electrical Metallic Tubing (EMT)
Intermediate Metal Conduit (IMC)
Galvanized Rigid Conduit (GRC)
Flexible Metal Conduit (FMC)
Liquid-tight Flexible Metal Conduit (LFMC)
Hope it works.

In the first part of the question there will be only one wire in the conduit, in the second part of the question there will be two wires in the conduit.
RSC pipe - Rigid Steel Conduit (RSC) can be installed indoors or outdoors, in dry or wet locations, exposed or concealed, in all kinds of atmospheric conditions, and in hazardous locations.
Another name for thin wall conduit is EMT and stands for Electrical Metallic Tubing. The term thin wall is used to differentiate between two conduit systems, thin wall and rigid conduit systems.
There will be at lease three and on some conduits additional information. There will be the manufacture's name, type of material the conduit is manufactured from and the diameter size of the conduit. For example Scepter PVC 100 mm (for American customers 4") conduit.
