An flexible conduit is a tube that is used in a building or structure to protect and route electrical wires. Metal, plastic, fiber, and burned clay are all options for electrical conduit. The majority of conduit is stiff, although flexible conduit is employed for some applications.

Conduit is typically erected by electricians at the location where electrical equipment is installed. Wiring rules frequently specify its function, form, and installation specifics.

Some of the first electric lighting systems made use of existing gas lines that served gas light fixtures that had been converted to electric lamps. Because this method provided excellent mechanical protection for inside wiring, it was used to all forms of interior wiring, and by the early twentieth century, purpose-built couplings and fittings for electrical usage were available.

Due to worries about electrical insulation being damaged by the rough interiors of typical gas pipes and fittings, most electrical codes now ban the routing of electrical wires via gas pipework.

Flexible conduits are tubings that are used to contain and protect electrical cables that provide power to a home or business. Conduits are built of a variety of materials and can be flexible or rigid. Many homeowners who want to do their own wiring choose to utilize flexible conduit over metal or plastic conduit since it removes the need for bending. When it comes to protection, however, a stiff conduit will outperform a flexible conduit.

If you are placing cables in your home and are considering using flexible conduits, it is important to understand the many varieties available.

In commercial structures, flexible conduits, or FCs, are frequently employed. This conduit is utilized in situations when a rigid conduit would be impractical. It has the ability to give adequate strength and protection while still being flexible.
