Copper-free aluminum construction delivers excellent corrosion resistance in damp or humid locations, while reducing weight for easier handling and faster installation. This lowers shipping and labor costs over multiple assemblies and supports compliant environmental sourcing. Series 5, C shape design simplifies routing and mating with other Condulet components, reducing misfits and onboarding time for technicians. In practice, this means faster panel wiring and fewer field modifications on end-user sites. Rigid/IMC conduit compatibility ensures secure, code-compliant connections in industrial facilities, with fewer adapter requirements and improved sealing against dust and moisture. The design minimizes field retrofit needs and simplifies standardization across projects. Dimensions and weight—8.45 in length, 2.73 in height, 2.49 in width, and 1.5 lb—enable precise enclosure planning and easier handling during field installs. NEC/CEC compliance and ordinary/non-hazardous area ratings provide regulatory confidence, while UPC and catalog references (C55) support streamlined procurement and asset management.

FAQs
The C55-G1 is designed for straightforward field installation with rigid/IMC conduit. Ensure the conduit ends are clean and properly seated in the Series 5 conduit outlet body, align with the enclosure knockout, and secure using compatible fasteners. The copper-free aluminum construction reduces weight during handling, while the C-shaped body provides a predictable routing path to minimize burrs and misalignment. Verify NEC/CEC compliance for ordinary locations and use appropriate sealing hardware to maintain enclosure integrity in dusty environments.
Key dimensions for planning include a length of 8.45 inches, height of 2.73 inches, and width of 2.49 inches, with a product weight of 1.5 pounds. The trade size is 1-1/2 inches, and the shape is a C-type Condulet. These measurements aid in window clearance, panel cutouts, and mounting hole placement, enabling precise enclosure fit and easier installation on site.
Yes. The Condulet Series 5 outlet body is specified for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous locations and adheres to NEC/CEC standards, ensuring code-compliant installation in typical industrial environments.
