Atkore 5133563 Epvc Type T Conduit Body 1/2 Inch

Product Description

The ATKORE 5133563 is a 1/2 inch EPVC Type T conduit body designed for use in electrical conduit systems requiring a T-configuration junction point. This fitting provides three access ports in a T-shaped layout, allowing conductors to be pulled, spliced, or redirected at a junction within a PVC conduit run. EPVC construction offers corrosion resistance suitable for exposed or damp-location installations. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors install this type of fitting as part of a complete conduit system in both new construction and retrofit applications.

This conduit body is sized for 1/2 inch trade-size conduit and is suited for residential and light commercial electrical installations. It functions as an access point where conductors change direction or branch off in a T-pattern. The EPVC material makes it appropriate for installations where non-metallic fittings are specified, including outdoor, wet, or corrosive environments where metal conduit bodies may not be preferred.

Key Features

• Type T configuration provides three-port access for conductor pulling and directional branching
• EPVC construction resists corrosion in damp, wet, and exposed locations
• 1/2 inch trade size fits standard half-inch PVC conduit runs
• Removable cover plate allows conductor access for pulling and inspection

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fitting for use with 1/2 inch trade-size EPVC conduit systems in standard electrical installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). De-energize all circuits before opening or working within any conduit body. Secure the conduit body firmly and ensure all conduit connections are fully seated and solvent-welded per manufacturer guidelines for PVC systems. Do not exceed the conduit fill capacity specified by NEC Article 314 for the conductor size and count being pulled.
