Vertical EMT in metal studs

[tkb]

Caddy makes a nice clip for EMT vertical in metal studs.
You don't have to bend the pipe when entering a box using these.

The code says what is says, but lets inject a little common sense once in a while. I've ran them on the inside of metal studs, but always in the center and never close to the edge. If they're hanging cabinets or shelving in the area though, don't even think about it!!

If they are hanging cabinets or shelving from metal studs they are idiots anyway.

Why not just take a couple pieces of bottom track, cover the open side, and run your conduit on that? Takes less than a minute and you wont have to worry about it.

That's what I do to avoid the situation mentioned and unnecessary off sets.
