B-LINE 88-12LTA – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the B-Line 88-12LTA tee fit 8 x 8 wireway trough?
Yes. The Eaton B-Line 88-12LTA is sized for 8 inch by 8 inch wireway, with an 8 inch height and 8 inch width at the openings, and it measures 13.5 inches on the length/depth dimension. Run it into 8 x 8 NEMA 12 trough and the flanges line up; it will not mate with 4 x 4 or 6 x 6 wireway.
2) Is the 88-12LTA tee rated NEMA 12 for a dusty plant floor?
It is a NEMA 12 fitting, so it is intended for indoor use against falling dirt, dust and dripping non-corrosive liquids, and it is UL Listed. The two sealing plate kits that come with it are what maintain that NEMA 12 integrity at the joints, so the rating depends on installing them. It is not a wet-location or outdoor (NEMA 3R/4) fitting.
3) What does the top opening mean on this wireway tee, and does orientation matter when I install it?
The 88-12LTA is a top-opening tee: the branch leaves the main run at the top, so conductors turn up out of the horizontal run. Orientation matters. If your branch has to drop down or go off to the side, a top-opening tee is the wrong fitting for that geometry, so plan the run before ordering.
4) Do I need to buy gaskets or sealing plates separately for this B-Line tee?
No. Two sealing plate kits ship with the 88-12LTA, which is what you need to close and seal the tee to the adjoining trough sections. You still supply the wireway lengths themselves and any connector hardware your run calls for beyond those kits.
5) What is the exact part number to order for the Eaton B-Line 8 x 8 NEMA 12 top-opening wireway tee?
Order model 88-12LTA from the Eaton B-Line series. That number covers the 8 x 8 steel tee with top opening, NEMA 12 rating, and the two sealing plate kits included.
6) Is this wireway tee steel or aluminum, and how heavy is it to hang?
Steel construction, and it weighs 13.437 lb. At that weight on an 8 x 8 body you want the trough supported on both sides of the fitting rather than letting the tee carry the run.
