Topaz Lighting 201BAL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Topaz 201BAL watertight hub work with EMT conduit?
No. The 201BAL hub is threaded and built for Rigid (RMC) and IMC conduit only. EMT is not threaded, so it needs a compression or set-screw connector instead. If your run is rigid or IMC and you are landing it in a box knockout, this is the right fitting.
2) What sizes does the Topaz 201BAL aluminum watertight hub come in, and what are the part numbers?
Two trade sizes: 1/2 inch is part number 201BAL, and 3/4 inch is 202BAL. Both are the same aluminum watertight hub with bonding screw. Match the trade size to your conduit and the knockout in the box.
3) Is this hub rated for outdoor and washdown enclosures?
Yes. The Topaz aluminum watertight hub is UL Listed and approved for NEMA 2, 3R, 4, 4X, 5, 12 and 13 environments, which covers raintight outdoor entries, watertight and corrosion-resistant washdown areas, and dusty industrial spaces. It is also flame retardant approved.
4) Do I still need a separate grounding bushing with this hub?
The hub ships with an oversized locknut carrying a bonding screw, so you can land a bonding jumper right at the hub for grounding continuity. That same oversized locknut is what keeps the connection from backing off under vibration. It also has a built-in insulated throat, so you do not need a separate insulated bushing to protect the conductors.
5) Will an aluminum hub corrode if I use it on a steel enclosure in a corrosive area?
The 201BAL body is corrosion-resistant aluminum and carries NEMA 4X approval, which is the corrosion-resistant watertight rating. That is the rating to cite when an inspector or spec asks whether the fitting belongs in a chemical or washdown location.
6) Does the Topaz watertight hub fit a standard box knockout?
Yes. It is made to connect rigid or IMC conduit into standard knockouts in junction boxes, pull boxes and electrical enclosures. Order the hub in the trade size matching the knockout: 201BAL for 1/2 inch, 202BAL for 3/4 inch.
7) Hub or a plain locknut and bushing for a wet location conduit entry?
A locknut and bushing pair does not seal the knockout. The Topaz 201BAL is a watertight hub with a sealing gasket arrangement rated NEMA 4 and 4X, so it maintains the enclosure rating where a locknut and bushing would let water in. Use the hub anywhere the enclosure has to stay raintight or washdown rated; save locknut-and-bushing entries for dry indoor work.
