Crouse-Hinds CPR6 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Crouse-Hinds CPR compression connector work on rigid steel conduit and IMC both?
Both, yes. The CPR series straight compression connectors are built for rigid steel and intermediate metal conduit, so the same fitting covers a run that switches between the two. What they are not is a fitting for EMT or flexible conduit, those take their own connector families. Trade sizes run 1/2 inch through 4 inch (CPR1 through CPR10).
2) Can I use a Crouse-Hinds CPR connector in a concrete pour?
That is what it is made for. The CPR straight compression connectors are concrete-tight, meaning they keep wet concrete and debris out of the raceway when the fitting is embedded in a pour or buried in a slab. Malleable iron body. Note the limit: they are rated for ordinary and non-hazardous locations only, so they are not a substitute for an explosion-proof fitting in a classified area.
3) Can I use a CPR compression connector in a hazardous or classified location like a paint booth?
No. The CPR compression connectors are rated for ordinary and non-hazardous locations. A Class I or Class II area needs an explosion-proof fitting listed for that classification, which is a different Crouse-Hinds product line. Do not substitute the CPR into a classified area on the basis of the iron body, the material is not what makes a fitting hazardous-location rated.
4) Do I need a separate grounding bushing with a Crouse-Hinds CPR compression connector?
The CPR is a non-insulated fitting, so the connection is metal to metal through the malleable iron body and the raceway carries continuity the way rigid and IMC systems normally do. Whether you still add a bonding bushing or a grounding locknut is driven by the circuit and the enclosure, not by the fitting. If your spec calls for an insulated throat on the conductors, this is not that connector, you want an insulated-throat version.
5) Compression or threaded, which connector should I use on a rigid conduit run?
Compression is the answer when you cannot turn the conduit to thread it into a coupling, which is most retrofit work, tight ceiling spaces, and any place you are joining to an existing stubbed run. The CPR clamps onto the conduit and pulls up tight with the compression nut instead of relying on cut threads. Threaded fittings are the choice on new work where you are running fresh rigid and can thread the ends anyway. The CPR is a straight body, so it is for in-line connections into a box or enclosure, not for turning a corner.
6) Are Crouse-Hinds CPR connectors acceptable for a Canadian job as well as a US one?
The CPR compression connectors are built to NEC and CEC standards, so the same fitting is specified on both sides of the border. Application limit to keep in mind on the submittal: ordinary and non-hazardous locations. Classified areas need a different fitting family entirely.
7) Is a malleable iron compression connector durable enough for an underground or industrial run?
Malleable iron is the heavier of the common connector materials, which is why the CPR is specified for industrial facility work, underground distribution, and slab pours rather than light commercial. Die-cast zinc fittings cost less and are common on interior EMT work, but for a fitting that gets concrete poured over it and never gets touched again, iron is the body you want. The material also means the fitting carries the mechanical load of a large conduit run, right up through the 4 inch CPR10.
8) I need to standardize conduit connectors across a whole facility, does one CPR part cover multiple conduit sizes?
No, each CPR is size-specific, so a facility standard means stocking the sizes you actually run. The line covers 1/2, 3/4, 1, 1-1/4, 1-1/2, 2, 2-1/2, 3, and 4 inch. For most MRO stock rooms the useful move is carrying 1/2 through 1-1/4 (CPR1 through CPR4) deep, since that is where branch circuit work lands, and pulling the larger sizes per project. All nine share the same malleable iron, concrete-tight, non-insulated straight construction, so the install method does not change size to size.
