Bridgeport Fittings 1240-PVC Pvc Oval Service Entrance Cap

Product Description

The BRIDGEPORT FITTINGS 1240-PVC is a PVC oval service cable entrance cap designed to terminate and weatherproof 2-1/0 and 2/0 oval service entrance (SEU) cable at the point where it enters a structure. The fitting provides a sealed, durable transition from the service drop to the meter base or service entrance enclosure. A galvanized steel mounting bracket and strap are included for secure attachment to the structure. Electricians rely on this cap to keep moisture and debris out of the conduit entry point on residential and light commercial service installations. PVC construction offers corrosion resistance in a wide range of installation environments.

This entrance cap is used in residential and light commercial electrical service installations where 2-1/0 or 2/0 oval SEU cable is routed from the utility service drop into a meter base or main disconnect enclosure. It is suited for exterior applications where corrosion resistance is a priority. The galvanized steel hardware provides the structural support needed to hold the cable entry securely against the wall of the structure. Licensed electricians typically install this fitting as part of a complete service entrance assembly.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. The utility service must be de-energized by the serving utility before any work is performed on the service entrance. Verify that cable size matches the oval opening of the cap before securing the mounting bracket and strap to the structure. Ensure a proper downward drip loop in the service cable to prevent water from tracking into the fitting.
