Steel City NC 201 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What sizes does the Steel City NC Series NM clamp connector come in?
The NC Series clamp connectors run in six trade sizes: 3/8 inch (NC 201), 3/4 inch (NC 202), 1 inch (NC 203), 1-1/4 inch (NC 204), 1-1/2 inch (NC 205) and 2 inch (NC206). Pick the size to match the knockout in the box or enclosure you are landing the cable on. They are sold individually, not in bulk bags, so you order the exact count you need for the job.
2) Can I use the Steel City NC connector with NMSC cable?
Yes, that is exactly what it is for. The NC Series is specified for use with NMSC, nonmetallic sheathed cable, which is the common Romex-style branch circuit wiring used in residential and light commercial work. It is not a fitting for EMT, rigid conduit, or flexible metal conduit.
3) What is the Steel City NC connector made of, and will it hold up in a damp basement or garage panel?
Zinc die cast body. That is the standard material for interior NM cable connectors and it is what you will find on most residential and light commercial panel and box work. Zinc die cast is intended for dry interior locations; for wet or corrosive areas, specify a fitting rated for that environment instead.
4) Is this a clamp-type connector or a screw-in type?
Clamp type. The Steel City NC Series is a clamp connector for nonmetallic sheathed cable, so the cable is secured by tightening a clamp over the jacket rather than by a compression nut or setscrew on conduit. That means it grips the sheath of the NM cable directly and provides the strain relief the cable needs at the box.
5) Do I need to order anything else to install the NC Series NM connector?
The connector mounts into a box knockout and is secured from inside with a locknut, then the cable clamp is tightened over the NM sheath. Order one connector per cable entry. Because they sell each rather than in a carton, count your entries and order to that number.
6) What is the difference between the NC 204 and the NC 205?
Trade size only. The NC 204 is the 1-1/4 inch connector and the NC 205 is the 1-1/2 inch. Both are zinc die cast clamp connectors in the same Steel City NC Series for NM cable, so the choice comes down to the knockout you are filling and the cable bundle you are landing.
