Steel conduit body covers provide a secure and weather-resistant seal over conduit body openings, protect conductors from moisture, dust, and physical damage, maintain electrical and mechanical system integrity, allow easy access for future wire pulls or servicing, offer good strength and impact resistance with lower cost and weight compared to malleable iron, resist corrosion through galvanized or plated steel finishes, and maintain UL listing and NEC compliance for use in wet and dry locations when installed with proper gaskets.
Steel conduit body covers are used to seal and protect the access opening of conduit bodies, such as LB, LL, LR, T, and C types, while allowing future access for wire pulling, inspection, and maintenance in rigid metal conduit (RMC) and intermediate metal conduit (IMC) systems, particularly in commercial and light industrial installations where a durable but lighter-weight metal cover is preferred.
