AC and MC snap-in type connectors are capable of withstanding ground fault currents likely to be imposed on them and offer equivalent grounding protection as locknut type connectors.

During the listing process at Underwriters Laboratories (UL), AC and MC connectors are assembled to cable and subjected to a ground fault current test. These tests are necessary to comply with application requirements in the National Electrical Code (NEC).

UL listed armored and metal clad cable connectors are suitable for grounding when installed in accordance with the NEC.

Always refer to the carton label for listed cable type and material (aluminum or steel). The label will also specify the cable size range. Do not use cable smaller than noted on label, the clamping mechanism on the fitting may not function correctly and grounding integrity will be compromised.

Always use Bridgeport's UL listed E-Z LOCK Connectors
