Thomas & Betts CICA-3/4 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) I have an EMT run, not rigid - should I still use the CICA-3/4 conduit body?
For an EMT run, look at a body built for EMT terminations instead. The Thomas & Betts CICA-3/4 is specified for rigid conduit, so it expects threaded rigid ends. The Crouse-Hinds C15MTC-6 Condulet Series 5 body is a Type C outlet body offered as a combination EMT body, which is the configuration intended for EMT work. Keep the CICA-3/4 for the threaded rigid portions of the job.
2) When should I use a Type C conduit body instead of an LB or LL?
A Type C like the CICA-3/4 is a straight-through pull body: both hubs are in line, so you use it as a mid-run pull point on a straight rigid conduit run. If the run has to turn, an LB (back outlet), LL or LR (side outlet) is the fitting you want. The C body gives you wire-pulling access without changing direction.
3) Is the CICA-3/4 conduit body metal or plastic, and will it hold up outdoors?
It's cast aluminum, not PVC or plastic. Cast aluminum is the usual choice for exposed rigid conduit work where you want corrosion resistance without the weight of malleable iron. Note that aluminum fittings are generally avoided in direct contact with concrete or in caustic environments.
4) Does the Thomas & Betts CICA-3/4 come with a cover and gasket?
The CICA-3/4 is the conduit body itself. Covers and gaskets for conduit bodies are typically ordered separately and sized to the body, so plan on adding a 3/4 inch body cover and gasket to close the opening.
5) Is a Crouse-Hinds Condulet Type C body a direct swap for a Thomas & Betts CICA-3/4?
Treat it as a functional equivalent, not an automatic drop-in. Both are Type C conduit outlet bodies serving the same straight-run pull function, and the Crouse-Hinds C15MTC-6 belongs to the Condulet Series 5 line. What has to match before you swap is the raceway and hub: the CICA-3/4 is a cast aluminum rigid conduit body with 3/4 inch hubs, while the C15MTC-6 is built as a combination EMT body. Confirm the opening size and conduit type on the run first, and check the CICA-3/4 spec sheet for the hub and body dimensions you are replacing.
6) For a facility standardizing on one conduit body, how do the Thomas & Betts CICA-3/4 and Crouse-Hinds C15MTC-6 differ for purchasing?
Standardize by raceway type, since the two cover different ones. The Thomas & Betts CICA-3/4 is the rigid conduit Type C body, cast aluminum, 3/4 inch hub, carries CSA certification, and ships in cartons of 10 at roughly 44 lbs per 100 pieces for freight planning. The Crouse-Hinds C15MTC-6 is a Condulet Series 5 Type C body in a combination EMT configuration. Facilities with both rigid and EMT runs typically stock one of each family rather than trying to cover both with a single part.
7) What exact part number should I order for the 3/4 inch Thomas & Betts Type C body?
Order Thomas & Betts CICA-3/4. That is the manufacturer part number for the 3/4 inch cast aluminum Type C conduit body, and the number your distributor will cross against.
