Copper-free aluminum construction reduces weight and enhances corrosion resistance, easing installation and ongoing maintenance. This translates to safer handling, faster install times, and lower lifecycle costs for facilities exposed to humidity or corrosive atmospheres. The Series 5 Condulet design provides proven compatibility with Eaton’s Condulet family, simplifying part selection and stock management for maintenance teams. The Rigid/IMC body supports robust protection for wires in demanding environments, helping facilities meet enclosure integrity requirements and minimize troubleshooting due to environmental ingress. A traditional cover and gasket set speeds field retrofits and replacements, enabling quick upgrades without re-engineering existing enclosures. Compliance with NEC/CEC standards and suitability for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations delivers clear governance for US and Canadian projects while reducing compliance risk across the project lifecycle.
