14、AL STANDARD Approval of an American National Standard requires verification by ANSI that the requirements for due process, consensus, and other criteria for approval have been met by the standards developer. Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, substa

15、ntial agreement has been reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that a concerted effort be made toward their resolution. Th

16、e use of American National Standards is completely voluntary; their existence does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether he has approved the standards or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the standards. The American Na

17、tional Standards Institute does not develop standards and will in no circumstances give an interpretation of any American National Standard. Moreover, no person shall have the right or authority to issue an interpretation of an American National Standard in the name of the American National Standard

18、s Institute. Requests for interpretations should be addressed to the secretariat or sponsor whose name appears on the title page of this standard. Caution Notice: This American National Standard may be revised or withdrawn at any time. The procedures of the American National Standards Institute requ

19、ire that action be taken periodically to reaffirm, revise, or withdraw this standard. Purchasers of American National Standards may receive current information on all standards by calling or writing the American National Standards Institute.

38、e as a raceway for wires or cables of an electrical system. Finished conduit is produced in nominal 10 ft (3.05 m) lengths, threaded on each end with one coupling attached. It is protected on the exterior surface with a metallic zinc coating or an alternate corrosion protection coating (See UL 1242

39、Third edition Clauses 1.3, 1.4, 16.2, 17, 18, 19, 22.6 and 22.7) and on the interior surface with a zinc or organic coating. This standard also covers conduit couplings, elbows, and conduit lengths other than 10 ft (3.05 m). Properly assembled systems of conduit, couplings, elbows and nipples manufa

40、ctured in accordance with this standard, and other identified fittings, provide for the electrical continuity required of an equipment grounding conductor. 2 Normative References The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute requirements of this America

It is not prohibited that the

47、 coatings include zinc. (See UL 1242, third edition, Clauses 1.3, 1.4, 16.2, 17, 18, 19, 22.6 and 22.7.) 4 Units of Measurements The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard. The metric dimensions are exact conversions for safety considerations. 5 General Requirements 5.1

48、 Circular cross section Electrical intermediate metal conduit shall have a circular cross section sufficiently accurate to permit the cutting of threads in accordance with Table 1. 5.2 Wall thickness The wall thickness shall be uniform throughout and in accordance with Table 2. 5.3 Interior surface The interior surface shall be free from injurious defects. 5.4 Welding The welding of all seams shall be continuous and done in a workmanlike manner. 5.5 Cleaning The conduit shall be adequately cleaned before the application of the protective coating.
