Allied Tube & Conduit CC150-ICRKON – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the CC150-ICRKON connector for EMT or for rigid conduit?
The Allied Tube & Conduit CC150-ICRKON is a 1-1/2 inch compression connector, which is the fitting type used to terminate EMT into a box or enclosure. It clamps the tube with a compression ring and gland nut rather than threading onto the conduit, so it is not a fitting for threaded rigid or IMC.
2) Can I use a 1-1/2 inch compression connector in a concrete pour?
Yes. The CC150-ICRKON is rated for concrete usage, so it can be used where the fitting gets encased in a concrete slab or wall, which is a common requirement on commercial deck and floor-box work. Compression fittings are the type specified there because they seal the tube without threading.
3) Why choose an insulated throat connector instead of a plain steel one?
The insulated throat on the CC150-ICRKON puts a smooth insulating collar at the point where conductors leave the fitting, so pulling large 1-1/2 inch circuit conductors does not drag them across a bare steel edge. Inspectors commonly want an insulated throat where the conductors are larger sizes, and using this version means no separate bushing is needed at that connector.
4) Will this connector hold up in a damp or exterior location?
The body is zinc plated to resist corrosion and built with heavy steel walls, which is what makes it suitable for damp interior and concrete-encased work. Zinc plated steel compression fittings are not a substitute for a listed raintight fitting where a truly wet location seal is required.
5) What part number do I order for a 1-1/2 inch insulated throat compression connector from Allied?
Order Allied Tube & Conduit part CC150-ICRKON. The CC prefix is the compression connector line, 150 is the 1-1/2 inch trade size, and the ICR suffix indicates the insulated throat version. There is a single configuration, so no finish or handing choice to specify.
6) Is a steel compression connector better than a die cast set screw fitting for slab work?
For concrete, use the compression type. The CC150-ICRKON has heavy steel walls and is rated for concrete usage, where a set screw fitting relies on a screw bearing on the tube and is normally limited to dry, exposed interior runs. Set screw fittings remain the cheaper and faster choice for ordinary above-ceiling EMT that will never be encased.
7) Does the CC150-ICRKON come with a locknut for the box?
The CC150-ICRKON is supplied as a compression connector with the compression nut and ring for the EMT side. Plan on a 1-1/2 inch locknut at the enclosure if the box side is not already accounted for in your material list, and a bonding locknut where equipment grounding continuity through the enclosure has to be maintained.
