Adaptaflex, flexible electrical conduit

Adaptaflex’s guide to the specification of flexible electrical conduit systems will assist in understanding exactly which conduit systems should be used in particular electrical installations. This guide looks at the many demands, way beyond simple cable management, that are put on flexible conduit systems. These include considerations such as environmental protection, mechanical protection, fire resistance, vibration resistance and various types of liquid resistance.

The guide also considers the implications of the Wiring Regulations, international standard BS EN 61386, conduit approval processes and the selection of complementary fittings.
