Overview

The ABB HC 704 is a 1-1/4 inch insulated set screw connector, a key component within ABB Installation Products' robust offering for electrical infrastructure. This connector is specifically engineered for seamless integration with rigid conduit systems. A significant advantage of the HC 704 is its elimination of the need for conduit threading, a feature that streamlines the installation process and reduces labor time. The connector is equipped with captive hex head screws. These screws are designed to tighten directly onto the rigid conduit, establishing a positive holding strength that ensures a secure connection. Furthermore, these set screws also provide a reliable ground connection, a critical safety and performance feature. A standout characteristic of the HC 704 is its insulated throat design. This innovative feature is proven to significantly reduce wire pulling effort, with reported reductions of up to 50%. This substantial decrease in pulling force not only makes installation easier but also enhances overall installation efficiency and can help prevent damage to wires during the pulling process. The HC 704 has undergone rigorous testing and is approved as concrete-tight. This designation ensures a secure and reliable seal when used in concrete pour applications, particularly when taped, providing confidence in its performance in demanding environments. The construction of the HC 704 utilizes durable steel as its primary material. This is further enhanced by a zinc-plated finish, which provides excellent corrosion resistance, extending the lifespan of the connector and maintaining its integrity in various conditions. The HC 704 is specifically designed and approved for use with rigid conduit applications. Its reliability and safety are underscored by its UL recognition under File No. E-23018, covering sizes from 1/2 inch to 1-1/4 inch. The physical dimensions of the HC 704 are A = 2 inches and B = 2 inches. For stocking and project planning, the standard carton quantity for the HC 704 is 25 units. The product SKU is HC 704, and its corresponding UNSPSC Code is 39131707.
