Thomas & Betts LTBUS11L-A – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How much conduit comes in a coil of Thomas & Betts LTBUS11L-A liquid tight flexible metallic conduit?
Each coil of the LTBUS11L-A is 25 feet (8 meters) of liquid tight flexible metallic conduit. If a run needs more than that, order multiple coils and join them with liquidtight connectors at a box or fitting, since the conduit itself ships as a continuous 25 foot length.
2) Is the Thomas & Betts LTBUS11L-A metal conduit or plastic?
It is metallic. The LTBUS11L-A is built on a galvanized steel core with a jacket over it, which is what makes it LFMC (liquid tight flexible metallic conduit) rather than the nonmetallic LFNC type. The steel core gives it crush resistance and physical protection that corrugated plastic liquidtight does not provide.
3) Can I use liquidtight flexible metallic conduit for the final connection to a motor or rooftop unit?
That is the normal use for it. Liquid tight flexible metallic conduit like the LTBUS11L-A absorbs vibration and allows movement between a rigid raceway and equipment that shakes or gets pulled for service, such as motors, pumps, compressors and rooftop HVAC units, while the jacket keeps water and oil out of the run. The galvanized steel core carries the physical protection that a flexible cord or nonmetallic whip would not.
4) What part number do I order for the blue 25 foot Thomas & Betts liquidtight?
Order it as Thomas & Betts LTBUS11L-A. That single manufacturer part number covers the blue jacketed liquid tight flexible metallic conduit supplied in a 25 foot (8 m) coil; there are no finish or length options to specify beyond it.
5) Does the steel core in this liquidtight count as my equipment ground?
Do not assume it does. The LTBUS11L-A has a galvanized steel core, but liquidtight flexible metal conduit is only permitted as an equipment grounding path within limited size and length conditions, so on most installs an electrician pulls a separate equipment grounding conductor inside the run. Size that conductor to the overcurrent device protecting the circuit.
6) Why is this Thomas & Betts liquidtight conduit blue instead of the usual gray?
The LTBUS11L-A carries a blue jacket, which contractors commonly use as a color code to separate one system from another on a job (control wiring versus power, or one machine circuit from the next) so crews can trace a run at a glance in a crowded equipment room or plant floor. Electrically and mechanically it is the same galvanized steel core liquidtight, the jacket color just identifies it.
