Eaton Crouse-Hinds HGLS2 Grounding Bushing - NEC/CEC
Part Number: HGLS2
Quick Summary
The HGLS2 grounding bushing from Eaton Crouse-Hinds is designed for rigid/IMC conduit installations, delivering reliable grounding with a compact, set-screw lug. When field installs are challenged by space restrictions or bulky hardware, this threadless design streamlines assembly and reduces downtime. It carries NEC/CEC compliance with additional UL certification support for Canadian and US applications in ordinary/non-hazardous locations, giving projects a clearer path to compliance without extra parts. By combining an aluminum lug, malleable iron body, and a 150°C rating, the HGLS2 delivers robust performance in demanding environments while offering fast installation and consistent electrical continuity across 3/4" conduit runs. This translates to safer panels, predictable grounding, and lower total installed cost.

FAQs
The HGLS2 installs by placing the body around the rigid/IMC conduit and securing the aluminum lug with the set screws. Since it is threadless, you don’t need to pre-tap or cut threads in the conduit, which speeds up field routing. Verify the lug accepts #4-14 AWG conductors, tighten to recommended torque, and confirm solid metal-to-metal contact for reliable grounding.
The HGLS2 is specifically designed for 3/4" trade size rigid/IMC conduit with a threadless lug and a malleable iron body. The aluminum lug accepts #4-14 AWG conductors, delivering a low-resistance path and stable mechanical connection across typical industrial temperatures up to 150°C, minimizing voltage drop and grounding impedance.
The HGLS2 is intended for ordinary/non-hazardous locations requiring dependable grounding in rigid/IMC conduit frameworks. It aligns with NEC/CEC standards and UL certification references, making it suitable for control panels, switchgear enclosures, and motor-control centers where space constraints and fast installation matter.
HGLS2 supports NEC/CEC standards with UL certification references available for Rigid-IMC grounding bushings. Its area classification is Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, ensuring suitability for standard industrial environments while simplifying supplier qualification and regulatory reviews.
The threadless, set-screw design reduces installation time and parts count, lowering labor costs and inventory needs. The aluminum lug and malleable iron body offer durable grounding with corrosion resistance, reducing maintenance cycles and rework while maintaining reliable performance in high-temperature industrial settings.
