Abb E986F-CTN Type Lb Pvc Access Fitting 1 Inch

Product Description

The ABB INSTALLATION PRODUCTS E986F-CTN is a Type LB PVC conduit access fitting sized for 1-inch trade size conduit. It provides a 90-degree change of direction with a removable cover plate that allows wire pulling, splicing access, and conduit system inspection without disturbing the run. The fitting is constructed from PVC, making it resistant to corrosion and suitable for both exposed and concealed installations. Electricians install this fitting on rigid nonmetallic conduit systems in residential, commercial, and light industrial applications where a back-entry pull point is required.

This Type LB access fitting is used in PVC conduit runs that require a 90-degree turn from a wall or ceiling surface, with the conduit exiting through the back of the fitting. Common install scenarios include service entrances, panel feeds, and branch circuit runs routed along exterior walls or through masonry. The removable cover allows wire access after the conduit system is complete, reducing labor during rough-in and final pull stages.

Key Features

• Type LB configuration provides 90-degree direction change with rear conduit entry and exit
• Removable cover plate allows wire pulling access without cutting into the conduit run
• PVC construction provides corrosion resistance for indoor and outdoor use
• 1-inch trade size fits standard 1-inch rigid nonmetallic conduit and fittings
• Suitable for exposed and concealed conduit installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use fitting for 1-inch trade size PVC rigid nonmetallic conduit systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC Article 352 governing rigid PVC conduit systems. De-energize all circuits in the affected conduit run before accessing the fitting cover for wire work. Use appropriate PVC conduit cement and primer on all solvent-weld joints per manufacturer instructions. Do not over-torque the cover plate screws, as PVC fittings can crack under excessive fastener load.
