    Default Split Conduit

    Is this stuff readily available in Oz?
    http://www.conduitrepair.com/product...ctConduit.html

    Anyone know...

    Or is there such a thing for repairing underground electrical conduit that has been damaged?
    How much wood could the woodchuck chuck if the woodchuck could chuck wood?

    Maybe you could get them to send you a case load for a review on your web site? Haven't seen it in Oz myself.

    Never seen the split stuff in Aus. How badly is the UG conduit damaged?

    Those were the droids I was looking for.

    This is not the correct product for underground cabling repairs. It does not meet ASA 2000 for that application.

    I suspect that this stuff (while a nice idea) is not actually intended for underground installations....but without a data sheet it is a bit hard to tell.

    You can repair PVC pipe using a coupling that has a screw down fitting over a rubber gasket on both ends but fitting will mean you'll need to cut the electrical cable....and I've never seen one small enough for conduit. But use them frequently for irrigation pipe...bloody handy!!
    Ours is not to reason why.....only to point and giggle.

    i think that you will find that Panzon is right and that it is used for data cable .for in wall applications
    i just installed two channels of the retangles 25 mm by 50mm in the wall that my plasma screen will go on . great stuff no more visable cables and there is heaps of extra space if i ever want to add something .
