Southwire N-100800 Rigid Conduit Nipple 1x8 Inch

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE N-100800 is a rigid conduit nipple sized at 1 inch trade size by 8 inches in length. Rigid conduit nipples are short threaded sections of conduit used to make direct, close-coupled connections between enclosures, junction boxes, panels, and conduit bodies. The N-100800 provides a secure, code-compliant pathway for conductors in applications where a standard-length conduit run is not practical. Licensed electricians install these as part of raceway systems in commercial and residential wiring projects.

This nipple is suited for use in electrical raceway installations where a rigid metal conduit system connects to enclosures or equipment. Its 8-inch length covers close-proximity connections between panels, meter sockets, junction boxes, and similar enclosures. The 1-inch trade size accommodates standard 1-inch rigid conduit fittings and locknuts. It is a common component in both new construction and retrofit electrical work across light commercial and residential settings.

Key Features

• 1-inch trade size fits standard 1-inch rigid conduit fittings and hardware
• 8-inch length suits close-coupled enclosure-to-enclosure connections
• Threaded ends for secure locknut or coupling attachment
• Rigid construction maintains conduit system integrity and grounding continuity
• Suitable for use in NEC-compliant rigid metal conduit raceway systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard component for 1-inch rigid metal conduit raceway systems using standard threaded fittings, locknuts, and conduit bodies.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize all circuits and verify zero voltage before beginning work on any enclosure or panel connection. Use appropriate pipe wrenches or conduit tools to thread and tighten the nipple without over-torquing the fittings. Ensure proper bonding and grounding continuity is maintained across all conduit connections per NEC requirements.
