Overview

The ABB Type LB Conduit Body, SKU E986N, is a robust and reliable solution engineered for demanding industrial electrical applications. Constructed from durable PVC, this conduit body is designed for seamless integration with both Schedule 40 and Schedule 80 conduit systems, offering exceptional versatility. Its generous 390 cubic inch capacity and 4-inch trade size provide ample space for wire pulling, splicing, and conduit transitions, significantly simplifying installation and maintenance processes. Engineered with unthreaded hubs and a textured lid featuring a foam-in-place gasket, the E986N ensures a secure and watertight seal, protecting sensitive electrical connections from environmental ingress such as dust, moisture, and corrosive elements. The gray PVC material is inherently resistant to corrosion, making it an ideal choice for harsh or chemically aggressive environments where traditional metal conduit bodies might degrade over time. This conduit body is specifically designed for use with Schedule 40 and 80 conduit, ensuring compatibility and adherence to industry standards. Key specifications include a trade size of 4 inches, a volume of 390 cubic inches, a length of 15-7/8 inches, and a width of 5-11/32 inches. The Type LB configuration allows for a 90-degree change in conduit direction, facilitating efficient routing of electrical pathways. While not designed for use with wiring devices or light fixtures, its primary function as a junction, pull, or transition box is executed with superior performance and longevity. ABB's commitment to quality is evident in the robust construction and thoughtful design of the E986N, providing electricians and engineers with a dependable component for critical infrastructure projects. This conduit body meets stringent industry requirements for electrical safety and operational efficiency, ensuring reliable power distribution and circuit protection in a wide array of industrial settings.
