Free Guide Aids Specification of Electrical Conduit Systems

A new free guide to specifying electrical conduit has been published by Kopex International.

The publication, “Getting it Right with Electrical Conduit”, has been written to answer common questions from engineers and contractors and to avoid the costly mistakes associated with specifying inadequate or inappropriate systems. As the leader in electrical conduit systems for specialist applications, Kopex International has a wealth of knowledge covering almost every industry, including the choice of materials and standards required for different installations.

One of the problems with specifying electrical conduit systems is the ever-growing and constantly changing regulatory burden and health and safety issues. Kopex International has a number of different ranges available, including liquid tight conduit and flameproof systems, complying with various standards such as ATEX. The guide helps to identify the different factors involved.

Among the topics covered in “Getting it Right with Electrical Conduit” are material choice, looking at plastics and metals, environmental conditions such as gaseous and liquid contamination, isolation from sparks and explosion and a host of other points to consider.
