Crouse-Hinds 151P – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What trade sizes does the Crouse-Hinds rigid/IMC set screw connector come in?
Six trade sizes cover 1/2 inch through 2 inch: 1/2 inch (150P), 3/4 inch (151P), 1 inch (152P), 1-1/4 inch (153P), 1-1/2 inch (154P) and 2 inch (155P). Order by the trade size of the conduit you are terminating, not by the knockout in the enclosure. Anything above 2 inch trade size is outside this range.
2) Can I use a set screw connector on rigid metal conduit, or is it only for EMT?
This Crouse-Hinds connector is built specifically for rigid and IMC conduit, not EMT. Set screw fittings are far more common on EMT, so it is worth checking the box: a set screw fitting sized for EMT will not seat correctly on rigid or IMC, whose outside diameters differ at the same trade size. If your run is threaded rigid or IMC and you do not want to thread the end, this is the fitting that does that job.
3) Does a set screw connector keep the equipment grounding path through the conduit?
Yes. The connector is non-insulated malleable iron, so the metal body carries continuity from the conduit into the enclosure and the raceway can serve as the equipment grounding conductor where the code allows it. If you need a bonding jumper for a concentric or eccentric knockout, or the circuit calls for a wire-type EGC, that is a separate part; this fitting does not include a grounding lug.
4) Do I need an insulated throat connector for THHN conductors instead of this one?
This is a non-insulated connector, so there is no plastic throat liner in the bushing end. Many inspectors and specs call for an insulated throat or a separate bushing when the conductors are 4 AWG and larger, so on larger feeders you will want an insulated version or an add-on insulating bushing. For branch circuit conductors smaller than that, the non-insulated fitting is the usual choice.
5) Can I install this connector in a Class I hazardous location or a paint booth?
No. The connector is rated for ordinary/non-hazardous locations only. Classified areas, including spray booths, fuel handling rooms and most process areas, require explosionproof fittings and sealing fittings listed for that class and division. Do not substitute an ordinary location set screw connector into that work.
6) Is this fitting raintight for an outdoor or wet location run?
Set screw fittings are dry location fittings. This one is described for ordinary/non-hazardous locations with no wet or raintight rating attached, so for exterior conduit, wash-down areas or anywhere water can reach the fitting you want a raintight compression connector rather than a set screw. Indoors, dry and damp interior commercial and industrial work is where this one belongs.
7) Can I use this instead of threading the end of a rigid conduit run?
That is the point of it. A set screw connector clamps the unthreaded end of rigid or IMC and terminates it into the enclosure, so you can cut and ream in the field without hauling a threader or cutting dies. The connection is mechanical, not threaded, so it belongs on ordinary location, dry interior work rather than anywhere a threaded, sealed joint is specified.
8) Do I need a separate locknut, or does the connector come with one?
Straight conduit connectors of this type ship with the locknut for the enclosure side. The fitting body goes through the knockout and the locknut draws it tight from inside. What is not included is any insulating bushing, sealing washer or bonding jumper, so add those separately if the job calls for them.
9) Will a straight connector work where the conduit turns at the panel, or do I need a 45 or 90?
A straight connector brings the conduit into the box on the same axis as the run, with no offset or bend at the fitting. If the conduit has to change direction right at the enclosure, use an elbow or a conduit body ahead of the fitting rather than trying to spring the pipe. Every trade size here from 1/2 inch through 2 inch is the straight configuration.
10) Will this connector pass inspection on a commercial job?
The connector is built to NEC/CEC standards for ordinary location rigid and IMC terminations, which is what an inspector looks for on standard commercial and industrial raceway. Where it will not pass is a classified area, a wet or raintight location, or anywhere the spec calls for threaded rigid connections. Match the fitting to the location and it is a code-compliant termination.
11) I am standardizing conduit fittings across a facility. Can I use one part number for the whole building?
Not one, but a short list. The Crouse-Hinds rigid/IMC set screw straight connectors run 150P (1/2 inch), 151P (3/4 inch), 152P (1 inch), 153P (1-1/4 inch), 154P (1-1/2 inch) and 155P (2 inch), all the same malleable iron non-insulated body. Stocking those six covers every rigid and IMC termination in dry, ordinary location areas. Exterior runs and any classified space still need different fittings.
12) Why choose malleable iron over a die cast zinc conduit connector?
Malleable iron takes the abuse. It resists cracking when the set screw is torqued down hard or the conduit gets bumped in a mechanical room, which is the failure mode on cheaper die cast bodies. On industrial and institutional work where the raceway is exposed and may get knocked, the iron body is worth the difference. In a finished ceiling with light conductors nobody will ever touch again, the choice matters less.
