Usage of Electrical Metallic Tube Set - Screw Connector
- Conduit Termination: Attaches EMT to a box or enclosure via a knockout.
- Mechanical Security: Set screws (typically 1-2 per connector) clamp the EMT.
- Grounding: As a metallic fitting (steel or zinc alloy).
- Wiring Protection: Shields wires at the conduit's end.
- Ease of Installation: Simple design allows quick attachment with a screwdriver.
- Residential:
Used to connect 1/2" EMT conduit to junction boxes or outlet boxes for lighting, outlets, or appliance circuits.
- Commercial:
Employed in office buildings, retail spaces, or warehouses.
- Industrial (Light Duty):
Applied in factories or workshops to connect EMT to control panels or enclosures.
- Specific Uses:
Box Connection: attaching EMT to junction boxes or panels.
Transition: Adapts EMT to other fittings or devices with knockouts.
Conduit End Protection: Caps conduit runs at termination points.
Structure of Electrical Metallic Tube Set - Screw Connector
1. Main Body:
- Material: Galvanized steel or zinc alloy.
- Design: A hollow, cylindrical sleeve with a smooth interior bore to accept EMT conduit.
2. Male-Threaded End:
- Material: Same as the body.
- Design: Features external threads at one end.
3. Set-Screw Mechanism:
- Material: Steel screws.
- Design: One or two threaded holes on the body's side, each with a set screw that tightens against the EMT conduit.
4. Throat Insulator (Optional):
- Material: Plastic or metal.
- Design: A ring or sleeve inserted inside the connector's throat.
