Abstract: A electrical connector for connecting conduit or cables to a junction box. The connector includes a tubular connector body with a longitudinal slot extending substantially along the length of the connector body and dividing the tubular connector body into an upper half and a lower half. A lateral slot extends through the upper half of the connector body at the leading end thereby hinging the upper half to the lower half at the trailing end of the connector. A tubular snap ring including one or more locking tangs is disposed and held thereon on the leading end of the connector body by a spring bias. The trailing body portion includes a threaded aperture and a threaded fastener therein. When inserted into a knockout in a junction box, the leading end of the snap engagement connector is held firmly but adjustably therein by engagement of the locking tangs with the panel, thereby allowing the orientation of the connector with respect to the box to be adjusted as desired.
Abstract: An improved electrical connector for fastening electrical mechanical tubing (EMT) to junction boxes and other similar electrical enclosures. The seat on the connector for the sides of the access hole in an electrical enclosure include two wedge holding tabs that form a tight and secure fit after the fastening screw is tightened. The connector is of simple construction and easily manufactured with a low profile allowing it to be used in areas that are restricted for space.
