IMC has a reduced wall thickness and weighs about one-third less than RMC. The outside has a zinc based coating and th

5、e inside has an approved organic corrosion-resistant coating. IMC is interchangeable with steel RMC. Both have threads with a 1 in 16 taper (3/4-inch per foot); use the same couplings and fittings; have the same support requirements; and are permitted in the same locations. 3.1.3 Electrical metallic

6、 tubing - EMT (ferrous metal) NOTE: Aluminum EMT is not covered by this standard. Electrical Metallic Tubing (EMT), also commonly called thin-wall, is a listed steel raceway of circular cross section which is unthreaded, and nominally 3.05 m (10 ft) long (see Figure 3). 6.10 m (20 ft) lengths are al

7、so available. The outside corrosion protection is zinc based and the inside has an approved corrosion resistant organic coating. Trade sizes are 1/2 through 4. (See Table 1 on next page for Metric Trade Size Designators.) EMT is installed by use of set-screw or compression-type couplings and connect

8、ors. EMT is permitted to have an integral coupling which is comprised of a “belled” end of the tube with set screws (see Figure 4, next page). 3.1.4 PVC-coated conduit (See Section 6) 3.2 Manufactured Elbows, Nipples, and Couplings 3.2.1 Factory elbows Elbows are bent sections of conduit or tubing used to change raceway direction or bypass obstructions. IMC and RMC elbows are threaded on each end.
