The conduit body is one of several methods, and you can put the conduit together. Through the conduit body, you can enter the inside of the raceway to pull, inspect and maintain the electrical wires. When you can better control the wire, your system can work effectively.

They can also help move the current direction of the wire, or bend the wire to a certain direction. You can also use the conduit body to connect the wires. Wire splicing is the joining of two wires together so that they can carry more current.

The conduit always stops at an electrical box or box-like device. You can connect the conduit body to the conduit with special fittings. The raceways are boxes, wires and connectors. The conduit body you should connect depends on the type of conduit. Connect the plastic conduit to the plastic box, and connect the metal conduit to the metal box.

Group wires together: Instead of clumping the wires, tie them to the tool before grouping the wires together, you use to put the wires in the conduit. Use a fishing strap to connect to the wires that need to pass through the conduit body.

Push the wire through the conduit: Use lubricant so that the wire does not scratch the hub. Push the wire slowly so as not to obstruct the wire.

Bend the wire: A pull loop is formed in the conduit body. The curvature between the two tension points cannot exceed 360 degrees. Doing so may damage the insulation. Instead, you should strive to keep your conduit in a straight line.
