Conduit Bodies in Hazardous Area

[sean369]

Cooper Crouse-Hinds lists, Electrical Fittings, Section 1F for non-hazardous areas. In that section they list Form 7, & Form 8 conduit bodies. Unlike the LBY fitting, the Form 7, & Form 8 fittings are not re-listed in the hazardous area conduit bodies shown in Section 4F, 5F, 6F, 7F, or 8F.
Can we use them in an area Classified as Hazardous Class I, Div. 2.?

Yes, except in unlikely conditions. - See Section 501.10 (B) (4). It's unlikely a conduit body would be used in any of the conditions mentioned in 501.105(B)(1), 501.115(B)(1), or 501.150(B)(1). A 501.105(B)(1) application arrises ocassionally, but it is usually from a bad design.
