Why a bushing matters
When you pull conductors through a conduit connector into a box, the edge of the fitting is the spot where insulation is most likely to get scraped, nicked or cut. A damaged jacket may pass a quick look today and cause a ground fault or a short months later, often behind a finished wall. The plastic bushing ED-PBT-150 covers that edge with a smooth, non-metallic surface, so the wires slide into the enclosure instead of dragging across bare metal. It is simple protection that takes seconds to install and saves hours of troubleshooting down the road.
Installation tips
Mount your 1-1/2" connector or fitting in the knockout and tighten it securely first. Then seat the bushing on the end of the fitting inside the box, panel or enclosure, before a single conductor goes through. Pull your wires as usual, using a wire-pulling lubricant on long or crowded runs, and check that the bushing is still firmly in place once the pull is done. Because the pack is a bag of 2, you can protect both ends of a run between two enclosures, or keep the second one ready for the next connection. Always follow the Canadian Electrical Code and your local inspection requirements for conductor protection at every conduit entry.
Sizing and compatibility
The ED-PBT-150 is a 1-1/2" bushing, so choose it for 1-1/2" conduit connectors and fittings, typically found on feeders, service entrances and heavier circuits where larger conductors are pulled. Check the size marked on your connector before you order, since a bushing only protects properly when it matches the fitting. When several conduits land side by side in the same panel, a bushing on each connector keeps every pull clean and every jacket intact, even when you feed heavy conductors around tight bends. It belongs with the ARANI range of boxes, connectors and fittings, which makes it easy to keep one brand across a whole job, from the knockout to the cover plate.
