Eaton 654 EMT Compression Connector - NEC/CEC Standards
Part Number: 654
Quick Summary
EMT compression connector by Eaton provides a secure straight connection for EMT conduits in industrial wiring installations. A common challenge is fittings loosening under vibration, which drives maintenance costs and increases downtime. This model aligns with NEC/CEC standards and UL listings for both the US and Canada, and it is rated for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations. As part of the Eaton Crouse-Hinds series, it delivers compatible performance with 1-1/2" EMT and compression-style terminations, while offering durable steel construction designed for long service life in panel feeds and machinery wiring. By combining robust materials with code-compliant design, it supports scalable conduit networks and reduces total cost of ownership for panel builders and integrators.

FAQs
The 654 is designed for 1-1/2" EMT conduit in straight, compression terminations. It uses a threadless design that simplifies installation and creates a secure, vibration-resistant connection suitable for standard EMT runs in industrial environments.
Compression fittings eliminate complex threading, allowing quicker field assembly and fewer torque-related issues. The result is faster terminations with reliable clamping force, reducing the risk of loosening over time in machinery and control panels.
The 654 adheres to NEC/CEC standards and carries UL certifications for both the US and Canada, with suitability for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, ensuring compliant installations in diverse facilities.
Yes. It is designed to be compatible within the Eaton Crouse-Hinds EMT family, enabling scalable conduit networks. For best results, use matching material, finish, and conduit type to maintain performance and welding-free terminations.
The steel, non-insulated, threadless design provides durable terminations with reduced maintenance and downtime. Faster installation lowers labor costs, while NEC/CEC and UL compliance reduces rework and warranty issues for panel builders and integrators.
