    Description
    <b><font color="7A0018">Begins Fall 2025</b></font><br> This course provides a comprehensive overview of conduit bending, fabrication procedures and methods. It will develop basic competencies in electrical apprentices and beginning learners. It will discuss hand bending for 90 degree bends, offsets and kicks, saddles and corner offsets, segmented bends, threaders, benders and other conduit types. These conduit types will include electrical metallic tubing (EMT), galvanized rigid conduit (GRC), rigid aluminum, intermediate metallic conduit (IMC), various poly-vinyl chloride (PVC), and flexible plastic and metallic conduit. Wiring in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) will be stressed. Students may petition, through the Office of Admissions and Records, to retake the course as the National Electrical Codes change.
