Eaton 1659WHITE EMT Compression Connector - NEC/CEC
Part Number: 1659WHITE
Quick Summary
The Eaton 1659WHITE EMT compression connector joins straight EMT runs in steel conduit efficiently. Installers often struggle with threadless, insulated fittings that complicate grounding and terminations. It meets NEC/CEC standards and is rated for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, helping reduce compliance risk. As part of the Crouse-Hinds line, the insulated steel design delivers durable performance and lowers lifecycle costs for wiring & connectivity projects. For engineers and procurement teams, predictable part numbers and fitment reduce ordering errors and simplify BOMs. The 1659WHITE is also compatible with Eaton's Crouse-Hinds range of EMT connectors and catalogs, supporting standardized installation practices across facilities. Ultimately, this helps reduce field rework, accelerate project timelines, and improve overall electrical system reliability.
