How to Install T&B Liquidtight Connectors
This guide details the proper installation of T&B liquidtight connectors with flexible metallic conduit, ensuring secure and reliable electrical connections in accordance with safety standards.
Estimated time: 15m
Tools needed:
Hacksaw, Power band saw, Metal jig, Smooth jaw wrench, Torque wrench, Safety glasses, Work gloves
Supplies needed:
Liquidtight flexible metallic conduit, T&B liquidtight connector (with gland nut, sealing ring, cone), T&B 140 series locknut (if needed), T&B 5260 series sealing gasket (if needed), PVC cement (if needed)
- Prepare for Installation and Ensure Safety
Before beginning, disconnect all power to the electrical system to prevent electric shock. Ensure the installation is performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with national and local electrical codes. Always wear hand and eye protection during the process.
- Cut the Flexible Conduit
Cut the liquidtight flexible metallic conduit with a clean, square end. For best results, use a metal jig and a sharp hacksaw (32 teeth/inch) or a power band saw (24-32 teeth/inch, not exceeding 400 ft/minute). Do not use an abrasive wheel.
- Assemble the Connector Components
For 5000, 7000, 9000 series, and PVC coated 3300 series connectors, slide the gland nut onto the conduit, followed by the nylon sealing ring. Then, thread in the Safe Edge™ Cone. If using a PVC coated connector, tighten with a smooth jaw wrench; apply PVC cement if metal is exposed due to gouging.
- Secure the Connector to the Knockout Box
Insert the connector body through the knockout hole in the box wall. For knockout applications, use a T&B® 140 series locknut and a 5260 series sealing gasket (purchased separately). Tighten the locknut to the connector body according to the specified torque for the fitting's trade size (e.g., 200 lb-in for 3/8", 300 lb-in for 1/2", 500 lb-in for 3/4", 700 lb-in for 1", 1000 lb-in for 1 1/4", 1200 lb-in for 1 1/2", 1600 lb-in for 2" to 4"). Ensure the 'Box side' is correctly positioned on the outside of the box.
