Appleton Century Crofts ERT75 Conduit Outlet Body 3/4in 7.3 cu in

Appleton ERT75 Conduit Outlet Body

The Appleton ERT75 is a T-style conduit outlet body designed for trade size 3/4 inch rigid metal conduit runs. It provides a 7.3 cubic inch interior capacity for wire splices and directional changes in indoor or outdoor electrical installations. The iron construction with triple coat epoxy finish suits hazardous location requirements where durability matters.

Threaded Hub Limits and Cover Inclusion

The threaded hub accepts only 3/4 inch trade size conduit, so larger or smaller raceways cannot connect directly without reducers. A cover is included with the body, eliminating the need to source a separate lid for the access point. The flat back design sits flush against mounting surfaces but offers no built-in grounding lug or additional knockouts beyond the three hub openings.

Upgrade From Smaller Bodies or Open Junction Boxes

Installers moving up from 1/2 inch outlet bodies gain the extra cubic inch volume needed for heavier conductor counts or larger wire nuts. The jump is worth it when the conduit fill calculation exceeds the capacity of smaller bodies or when a sealed, listed fitting replaces an open junction box in damp or hazardous areas. Builders who need more than three entries or a different body style such as LB or C will need a different fitting.
