A Versatile Solution As building designs become more complex, the National Electrical Code® (NFPA 70) has tightened regulations on many wiring methods. However, steel conduit continues to be a universally preferred option because of its unmatched protection in various environments. Here are several reasons why steel conduit is favored across different industries:
- It delivers superior impact resistance in all temperature conditions.
- It provides outstanding durability, offering the highest yield and tensile strength.
- It has excellent fire resistance capabilities.
- It ensures a dependable electrical grounding path.
- It can reduce electromagnetic fields (EMF) by up to 95% at power frequencies.
- It has a thermal expansion coefficient that aligns well with most building materials.
A Resilient and Sustainable Choice Steel conduit is not only long-lasting but also highly recyclable, making it one of the most sustainable raceway options available today.
Flexible and Cost-Effective As buildings change or expand, many wiring systems require removal and reinstallation. Steel conduit can be reused multiple times, offering substantial long-term savings despite a higher upfront cost.
