Overview

The ABB HC 701 1/2" Insulated Set Screw Connector is a precision-engineered solution for securing rigid metal conduit in industrial, commercial, and construction applications. Manufactured by ABB - Installation Products, this connector features a hardened steel-zinc plated body with a nylon insulated throat, ensuring superior corrosion resistance and long-lasting performance. Designed for threadless rigid conduit installations, the HC 701 eliminates the need for conduit threading while providing a concrete-tight connection when taped. The captive hex head screws deliver positive holding strength and ground continuity, with a design capable of carrying ground fault currents up to 10,000 amps RMS (for 1/2" conduit). The nylon insulator reduces wire pulling effort by up to 50% and prevents insulation thinning or first thread damage, meeting and exceeding UL 514B, CSA C22.2 No. 18, and NFPA 70 code requirements. With a UL File No. E-23018 and CSA File No. LR-2884 certification, this connector is ideal for electrical installations requiring reliable bonding and grounding in harsh environments. Its durable construction and compliance with federal specifications (W-F-408, H-28) make it a trusted choice for professionals demanding dependable conduit connections.
