2. Ideally, one continuous length of ENT should be installed
from box-to-box, but if the long lengths are not available,
the run can be made using shorter lengths coupled
together.
3. Carlon ENT is a pliable raceway that is not designed for
flexible use in final connections to motors, A.C. units or
other machinery where a flexible connection is necessary.
In such instances, use Carlon

4. Ease of installation of ENT enables you to meet to the
concrete pour schedule, and with ENT’s versatility and
pliability, installation rearrangements can be achieved just
prior to the pour.
5. The biggest advantage of ENT is its ability to resist
breaking, kinking, or crushing when installed and prior to
the pouring of concrete. This eliminates costly rework and
comebacks by the electrical contractor.
6. The installation of Carlon ENT isn’t any different than the
installation of comparable metallic conduit in a slab. ENT
is installed on the first layer of rebar. The ENT is tied to the
rebar every 3 feet with duct tape, tiewraps or tiewire. This
will prevent floating of the ENT and hold it in position
during the pouring of concrete.
