Abb Installation Products E986HR 1-1/2 in Type Lb Pvc Fitting

Product Description

The ABB INSTALLATION PRODUCTS E986HR is a 1-1/2 inch Type LB PVC access fitting designed for use in conduit runs where a 90-degree directional change is required with accessible wire-pulling capability. The LB body style positions the removable cover on the back of the fitting, making it ideal for installations where side or front access is restricted. Constructed from PVC, this fitting suits non-metallic conduit systems in residential and light commercial electrical applications. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors install this fitting as part of raceway assemblies to simplify wire pulling and future maintenance access.

This fitting is used in PVC conduit systems routed along exterior walls, through building penetrations, and at service entrances where conduit must transition direction. The 1-1/2 inch trade size accommodates standard Schedule 40 and Schedule 80 PVC conduit of the same nominal diameter. Typical applications include service entry conduit runs, underground-to-above-grade transitions, and branch circuit raceways in residential, commercial, and light industrial settings.

Key Features

• Type LB body style provides rear-facing cover access for tight installation spaces
• 1-1/2 inch trade size fits standard PVC conduit of the same nominal diameter
• PVC construction resists corrosion and moisture in exposed or damp locations
• Removable cover allows wire pulling and future conductor access without disturbing the conduit run
• Sold in a package of 6 units per package quantity

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for 1-1/2 inch PVC conduit systems used in residential and commercial electrical raceway installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). De-energize all circuits before working on or near the conduit system. Use compatible PVC conduit cement and primer when solvent-welding this fitting to conduit per manufacturer and code requirements. Do not overtighten the cover screws, as PVC fittings can crack under excessive mechanical stress.
