Eaton Crouse-Hinds HGLL5C Grounding Bushing - NEC/CEC
Part Number: HGLL5C
Quick Summary
HGLL5C grounding bushing provides reliable grounding for rigid/IMC conduits in industrial electrical installations. Many facilities struggle with compact, code-compliant grounding options that fit 1-1/2" trade sizes without slowing project timelines. It meets NEC/CEC standards, is rated to 150°C, and uses a copper lug for high-conductivity bonding. Designed for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, it simplifies panel and box installations and reduces wiring complexity. Use cases include control panels, junction boxes, and equipment racks where durable, easy-to-install grounding is essential. The combination of threaded connections and malleable iron construction delivers vibration resistance and long-term reliability in harsh environments.

FAQs
Install HGLL5C by threading the bushing onto the rigid/IMC conduit until snug, then secure the copper lug to the controlled equipment or panel grounding bus. Use appropriate torque guidelines from Eaton’s specification sheet to ensure a tight, corrosion-resistant bond. Confirm the lug accommodates #4-14 AWG conductors and verify continuity with a ground tester after assembly.
Yes. HGLL5C is designed for a 1-1/2" trade size using a threaded connection and a copper lug rated for #4-14 AWG conductors, compatible with rigid/IMC conduit. This makes it suitable for standard industrial grounding applications where space is constrained yet high reliability is required.
HGLL5C carries NEC/CEC compliance for general electrical installations and is listed for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations. It also aligns with Canadian certification evidence via UL-listed sources and supports high-temperature operation up to 150°C, ensuring safety and performance in standard industrial environments.
This grounding bushing is ideal for control panels, junction boxes, and equipment racks that use rigid/IMC conduit. Its copper lug and 150°C rating support high-temperature environments, while the malleable iron body provides durability in manufacturing floors and exposed installations.
The threaded design and robust materials reduce field labor, inspection time, and maintenance needs. Copper lug bonding minimizes impedance and corrosion risk, improving system reliability and reducing downtime in high-usage facilities, which translates to lower total cost of ownership over the asset lifecycle.
