Technical Specifications

This Condulet outlet body features 3/4" trade size compatibility with threaded hub connections for rigid conduit, IMC, and EMT systems. The malleable iron construction provides exceptional mechanical strength while maintaining electrical continuity throughout the conduit system. Compact dimensions of 6" length x 2.25" height x 1.5" width allow installation in space-constrained applications. The T-shape configuration with Form 5 removable cover design enables efficient wire pulling and system maintenance. Unit weight of 1.37 pounds reflects the substantial construction quality expected from professional-grade electrical fittings.

Installation Process

1. Plan conduit routing to position T-body at desired wire pulling location with adequate access clearance
2. Thread rigid conduit or IMC into hub openings using appropriate conduit compound for weather sealing
3. For EMT connections, use compression or set screw connectors rated for the application
4. Ensure all connections are tight and maintain proper grounding continuity through metallic pathway
5. Install conductors through conduit system using the T-body access point for efficient wire pulling
6. Replace cover securely after wire installation, ensuring gasket sealing if required for the application

Applications

Perfect for:

• Commercial Buildings - Office complexes, retail facilities, hospitals, and educational institutions
• Industrial Facilities - Manufacturing plants, processing facilities, and heavy industrial applications
• Equipment Connections - Motor control centers, switchgear, and electrical distribution panels
• Conduit Direction Changes - 90-degree turns in conduit runs with wire pulling access requirements
• Maintenance Access Points - Strategic locations for future wire additions or system modifications
• Junction Applications - Combining multiple conduit runs in electrical distribution systems
