Types of electrical conduit
Electrical conduit is a system of pipes, tubes or ducts used to protect and route electrical wiring. There are several types of electrical conduit, each with its own specific purpose and characteristics. Here are some of the most common types:
PVC conduit: PVC (polyvinyl chloride) conduit is a rigid plastic conduit that is inexpensive, lightweight and easy to install. It is commonly used for residential and commercial electrical wiring.
Rigid metal conduit (RMC): RMC is a heavy-duty steel conduit that provides excellent protection against physical damage, fire and moisture. It is commonly used in industrial and commercial applications.
Electrical metallic tubing (EMT): EMT is a lightweight steel conduit that is easy to bend and install. It is commonly used in residential and commercial applications.
Flexible metallic conduit (FMC): FMC is a flexible metal conduit that is easy to bend and install. It is commonly used for short runs in residential and commercial applications.
Liquid-tight flexible metal conduit (LFMC): LFMC is a flexible metal conduit that is coated with a liquid-tight material to provide protection against moisture and chemicals. It is commonly used in outdoor and underground applications.
Electrical nonmetallic tubing (ENT): ENT is a lightweight plastic conduit that is easy to install and can be used in wet locations. It is commonly used in residential and commercial applications.
Intermediate metal conduit (IMC): IMC is a thinner-walled steel conduit that provides good protection against physical damage, fire and moisture. It is commonly used in industrial and commercial applications.
