Thread Lube for rigid conduit in haz. loc?
Thread Lube for rigid conduit in haz. loc?
(OP)
When assembling rigid conduit in a Class I Division 1 location, is there a specific type of thread lubricant that's allowed or recommended? Or is there no rule either way?
Thanks,

Is it fair to say, then, that a lubricant is allowed, but needs to maintain electrical continuity (for bonding, etc), whereas regular pipe dope could insulate the connection?

If you can find the old thread you are talking about, look immediately below the thread title in bold blue letters at the top of the thread. In this thread you will see "thread248-129047". Cut & paste that into this thread and the TGML will activate the link for you.
