Overview

The ABB BU804 Insulated Conduit Bushing, SKU BU804, is a critical component for protecting electrical conductors within rigid and intermediate metal conduit (IMC) systems. Manufactured by ABB Installation Products, this bushing is constructed from durable die-cast zinc, ensuring longevity and resistance in industrial environments. It features a trade size of 1-1/4 inches, with precise external dimensions of 1.96 inches in width and 0.56 inches in thickness. This design adheres to National Electric Code (NEC) requirements, such as paragraph 373-6C, by providing a smoothly rounded insulating surface at raceway entrances to pull boxes, junction boxes, and other enclosures. This smooth surface prevents damage to ungrounded conductors during installation and operation. The BU804 is designed to fit securely, offering improved bonding and resistance to loosening under vibration due to its locknut-type base. While specific U.L. and CSA certifications for this exact model are not detailed in the provided catalog excerpts, similar ABB and T&B insulated metallic bushings are often U.L. listed and CSA certified for 105°C temperature ratings. The die-cast zinc construction offers robust mechanical protection, and the insulating liner, often a distinctive blue in T&B fittings, ensures electrical safety. This bushing is an essential accessory for electrical contractors and maintenance professionals seeking reliable conduit protection and efficient wire pulling, potentially reducing wire pulling effort by up to 50% as seen in comparable T&B insulated fittings. Its precise dimensions ensure a proper fit for 1-1/4" rigid and IMC conduit, making it a dependable choice for maintaining the integrity and safety of electrical installations.
