EMT (Electrical Metallic Tubing) conduits are primarily used for exposed indoor electrical installations. To ensure a secure and neat setup, various fittings and fastening accessories are employed:
Conduit clamps: Single-hole or double-hole clamps are used to firmly secure the conduits to walls or surfaces, preventing movement or vibration.
Elbow fittings: These angled elbows allow the conduit to change direction at sharp corners or along long runs. Their removable covers facilitate easy cable pulling.
LB type conduit bodies (condulets): Used in both indoor and outdoor conduit runs, these provide access points for wire pulling and changes in conduit direction, with removable covers for convenience.
Threaded couplings: Used to join sections of conduit securely within indoor installations.
Offset connectors: These fittings attach metal electrical boxes to fixed metal conduit runs, ensuring a stable and professional connection.
During installation, EMT conduits are measured, cut, bent as needed, and assembled with the appropriate fittings and accessories to create a durable, organized, and code-compliant conduit system.
