A conduit is a channel or pipe that allows the passage of fluids, gases, or electrical wires. It serves as a protective pathway, ensuring that the materials inside are safely transported from one location to another. Conduits can be made from various materials, including metal, plastic, or concrete, depending on their intended use. In electrical systems, conduits protect wiring from damage and environmental factors. They are commonly used in buildings and infrastructure to organize and secure electrical installations. Different types of conduits, such as PVC, EMT, and flexible conduit, cater to specific needs and applications in construction and electrical work.
