B-LINE 88-12FN1 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is a wireway nipple section used for on an 8x8 wireway run?
The Eaton B-Line 88-12FN1 is a short feed-through connector section used to join two 8 x 8 inch wireway components or to pass conductors between a wireway and an adjacent enclosure. It is a feed-through wiring method, so conductors run straight through it with no taps or splices made inside. The section is only .938 inch deep, so it closes a short gap rather than adding usable raceway length.
2) Is this wireway nipple section rated for a washdown or oily indoor area?
It is a NEMA 12 enclosure section, which covers indoor protection against dust, falling dirt, and dripping noncorrosive liquids. That suits machine shops, food handling areas, and general industrial interiors. It is not a NEMA 4 or 4X rating, so do not use it where hose directed water or outdoor exposure is involved.
3) Is the B-Line 88-12FN1 nipple section UL Listed for inspection sign off?
Yes, it carries a UL Listed mark, which is what an electrical inspector looks for on wireway components in a commercial or industrial install.
4) Can I make splices or taps inside this B-Line nipple section?
No. The 88-12FN1 is a one nipple feed-through section, meaning conductors pass straight through it. If the job calls for splicing or pulling, use a wireway pull box or a length of wireway with a removable cover instead.
5) Is this nipple section steel or aluminum?
Steel. At 2.882 lb for an 8 x 8 section, it is a one hand piece to hold in place while you bolt it up, but plan on painted steel rather than a corrosion resistant aluminum or stainless body.
