Cable FaultFiberglass conduit will not melt or weld the wire to the inside of the conduit under fault conditions as can happen with PVC, steel and aluminium conduit. | Not Affected | Melt/Fuse | Melt/Fuse | Weld | Weld | Weld | |
Toxicity/HalogensFiberglass conduit does not release toxic halogens (i.e. chlorine and bromine) when burning. | No | Yes | Yes | No | Yes | No | |
WEIGHT COMPARISON (SW IPS – lbs./per 100 ft., approx.) Fiberglass conduit offers the lowest weight and is still very rigid. | 3 ⁄ 4“ | 17 (SW) | 23 | 29 | 105 | 105 | 36 |
