Ocal LB47-LG – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is an LB conduit body used for in a rigid conduit run?
A Type LB conduit body like the Ocal LB47-LG gives you a removable-cover access point where the raceway makes a 90 degree turn. It acts as a pull outlet for conductors being installed, so wire can be fed, pulled, and spliced without breaking apart the conduit run or adding a full pull box. The LB shape puts the opening on the back, which is why it is the common choice where conduit turns off a wall and through it.
2) Can I use the Ocal LB47-LG with EMT or only rigid conduit?
It is built for rigid conduit raceway systems, with threaded hubs rather than set-screw or compression terminations. If your run is EMT, you either need an EMT-to-threaded adapter at the body or an EMT-style conduit body instead.
3) Is the Ocal LB47-LG conduit body metal or plastic?
Gray iron. The LB47-LG is a cast gray iron body, which is the material electricians expect for rigid conduit work in commercial and industrial raceway rather than a die cast or nonmetallic fitting.
4) Should I use an LB conduit body or a full pull box at a 90 degree turn?
Use the LB where you just need a hand-access point to pull or splice conductors at a right angle turn. The Ocal LB47-LG covers that at a fraction of the footprint of a pull box, which is the whole point of the LB shape. Go to a pull box instead when the conductor count or bend radius requirements exceed what a conduit body can hold, or when multiple raceways have to converge in one enclosure.
5) Does the Ocal LB47-LG come with a cover and gasket, or do I order those separately?
The LB47-LG is ordered as the conduit body itself, model and MPN LB47-LG. The LB design is a removable-cover style body, so plan on confirming the matching Ocal cover and gasket for your installation as separate line items rather than assuming they ship in the same carton.
6) What part number do I give my distributor for this Ocal LB conduit body?
Specify LB47-LG. That is both the model designation and the manufacturer part number for this Ocal series LB-shape rigid conduit body, so one number is enough to order it without ambiguity against the adjacent shapes in the line such as C, T, or LL bodies.
7) What color is the Ocal LB47-LG, and will it match other Ocal fittings on the job?
The LB47-LG is light gray, matching the standard Ocal series finish used across the rest of the Ocal conduit body line. If a facility is already standardized on Ocal fittings, the appearance stays consistent through the raceway.
