Technical Specifications

This LBY service entrance elbow features 3/4" trade size compatibility with rigid and IMC conduit systems, constructed from premium Feraloy iron alloy for maximum durability. The 90-degree configuration measures 3.19" in height, 2.25" in length, and 2.25" in width, with a total weight of 1.27 pounds. The condulet is designed for ordinary/non-hazardous locations and complies with NEC/CEC standards for service entrance applications. The robust construction and precision threading ensure reliable performance in demanding electrical installations.

Installation Process

1. Verify conduit alignment and measure the required 90-degree transition point for proper condulet placement
2. Thread the LBY elbow onto the first conduit run, ensuring full engagement of threads for secure connection
3. Align the perpendicular opening with the second conduit run and thread the conduit into the elbow
4. Remove the access cover and pull service entrance conductors through the condulet body
5. Make any required splices or connections within the condulet interior following NEC/CEC guidelines
6. Reinstall the cover with proper gasket sealing to maintain weather protection and system integrity

Applications

Perfect for:

• Service Entrance Systems - Main electrical service transitions from utility connections to building distribution
• Commercial Buildings - Office complexes, retail centers, and institutional facilities requiring robust service entrance solutions
• Industrial Facilities - Manufacturing plants, processing facilities, and heavy-duty electrical distribution systems
• Outdoor Electrical Installations - Weather-exposed service entrance applications requiring superior corrosion resistance
• Municipal Infrastructure - Schools, government buildings, and public facilities with demanding electrical requirements
• Equipment Connections - Service entrance transitions to main distribution panels and switchgear
• Conduit Direction Changes - Any rigid or IMC system requiring reliable 90-degree transitions with access capability
• Splice Point Applications - Locations where service entrance conductors require splicing or connection access

LBY Condulet System Benefits

LBY service entrance elbows provide superior functionality compared to standard conduit fittings by combining directional change capability with accessible splice points. The removable cover design enables easy conductor installation, future modifications, and system maintenance without disrupting the entire conduit run. This accessibility is particularly valuable in service entrance applications where conductor sizes are large and installation complexity is high.
