Thomas & Betts 870S – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Thomas & Betts 870S cover fit a Form 8 or Form 5 conduit body?
No. The 870S is a Form 7 conduit body cover, so it mates with Form 7 bodies only. Conduit body covers are form-specific: the gasket seat, bolt pattern and opening profile change between forms, so a Form 5 or Form 8 body needs the cover built for that form. Match the form designation stamped on the body before ordering.
2) Is the Thomas & Betts 870S cover UL listed for an inspected commercial job?
The 870S carries UL listing under file E2969 and is CSA certified, which is what an electrical inspector or a spec writer on an institutional job will be looking for on a metallic conduit body cover.
3) I need to replace a damaged cover on an existing Thomas & Betts conduit body. What do I order?
For a Form 7 body, the replacement cover is part number 870S. Read the form and size markings cast into the body, not the old cover, since a crushed cover is easy to misidentify. The 870S is the stamped steel oval cover for that form.
4) Is the 870S conduit body cover steel or plastic?
Stamped steel. That matters on industrial and outdoor runs where a cover takes impact or is mounted where a molded cover would crack. It also means the cover carries the same grounding continuity path as the metallic body it bolts to.
5) Does the Thomas & Betts 870S ship individually or in a multi-pack?
The 870S is packed 5 to an outer carton, with the shipping carton measuring 9.2 x 5.9 x 7 inches and running about 120 lbs per 100 pieces. If you are stocking a service truck or a plant MRO crib, plan quantities in multiples of five.
6) Does the 870S cover come with a gasket and screws?
The 870S is sold as the cover itself, a stamped steel Form 7 replacement lid. If the opening needs a wet-location seal, order the matching gasket separately and confirm the existing cover screws are serviceable before you pull the old cover.
