LFMC to Reducing bushing

[wireday]

I need to go from 1.5"to3/4" metal threaded Reducer to 3/4"LFMC what is proper way? Is it ok to just remove the locknut and screw the LFMC connector into the reducer?

Wouldn't that be the same, still needing reducing bushing

Reducers are made for this purpose so that is what I would use.

So a RB has NPT and a LFMC connector is male NST, do some electricians just rely on the seal that comes with the connector? Also I see the mention of using a C conduit body,
wouldnt the NPT threads and NPS in the conduit body be the same issue? or am I missing something.

So a RB has NPT are the LFMC connectors Also NPT, I always run a GEC, just want to bond the LFMC in a wet inside location.

LFMC connectors rated for Class I Division 2 typically have tapered NPT threads.
