Factories, workshops, refineries
Protects wiring from mechanical damage, chemical exposure, and high heat
Rigid steel conduit preferred for exposed or outdoor areas
EMT commonly used for indoor wiring
Provides fire protection and neat installation in ceilings, walls, and floors
FMC and LFMC connect motors, equipment, or movable machinery
Allows vibration, expansion, and tight-space routing
Galvanized RSC or LFMC used in outdoor, wet, or corrosive environments
PVC-coated conduits prevent moisture ingress
Underground electrical protection (when encased in concrete)
Hazardous location wiring (with approved fittings and coatings)
Data centers, hospitals, or laboratories requiring robust protection
Rigid Outdoor / Industrial → RSC / Galvanized Steel
Indoor General Wiring → EMT
Flexible Connections → FMC or LFMC
Wet / Corrosive Environment → LFMC / PVC-coated steel
High Vibration Machinery → Flexible or Metallic Corrugated Conduit
Rigid Steel Conduit (RSC)
Thick-walled, highly durable, suitable for exposed outdoor or industrial areas
Intermediate Metal Conduit (IMC)
Thinner than RSC but still strong; lighter weight; suitable for general electrical installations
Electrical Metallic Tubing (EMT)
Thin-wall, lightweight, easy to bend; used indoors
Flexible Metal Conduit (FMC)
Corrugated steel tubing; flexible for tight spaces and machinery connections
Liquid-tight Flexible Metal Conduit (LFMC / LTFMC)
FMC coated with PVC for water resistance; suitable for outdoor or wet locations
Size: DN16-150mm
Rigid Steel Conduit (RSC): 2.0–3.0 mm (depends on trade size)
Intermediate Metal Conduit (IMC): ~1.5–2.3 mm
Electrical Metallic Tubing (EMT): 1.0–1.2 mm
Wall thickness varies by standard and trade size.
