Consult Crouse-Hinds for proper space for installing and servicing fittings such as seals, unions, GUA's, etc.
*Maximum conduit size permitted in Group B locations is 4".
DRILLING AND TAPPING FOR ENTRIES
(ATEX Certified boxes must have all drilled and tapped entries
machined at Cooper Crouse-Hinds factory)
•
To comply with the NEC section 344.28, all conduit entries must
be provided with a smooth rounded entry into the enclosure. This
may be accomplished in various ways, including the use of
Crouse-Hinds RE reducers or by using LNR series conduit
liners.
The location and maximum sizes of conduit openings must be in
accordance with Table I.
•
Female conduit must be taper tapped with the thread form and
taper (3/4 in. per ft.) conforming to NPT. A standard NPT male
gage must enter the tapped opening 1-1/2 turns past the gage
notch. Openings are tapped deeper than standard NPT gage to
ensure a minimum of five full threads engagement with standard
NPT threaded conduit (refer to NEMA FB-1-4.01).
If more than four (4) conduit entries, or a mix of conduit entry
trade sizes are needed in any wall of the enclosure, use the
following instructions:
‡ These instructions can be used for Group B locations, provided no entry machined in the wall of the enclosure exceeds 4" trade size.

TABLE 1
1. From Table 1, determine how many 5" conduit entries are
permitted on a side.‡ For example, a quantity of (4) 5" entries
are permitted on the long side of an EJB361808.
2. For each 5" conduit entry permitted‡, one may substitute a
quantity of smaller conduit entry trade sizes.
3. Some smaller enclosures cannot accept a 5" opening, in which
case, the maximum number of 3 1/2" or 1 1/2" conduit openings
must be determined (again, using Table 1).
4. Use Table 2 to determine how many of the smaller conduit
entries may be substituted for either the 5", the 3 1/2" or the
1 1/2" trade size. Use Table 3 for minimum spacing of conduit
entries.
