Abstract
A rain-tight fitting for connecting electrical metal tubing to an electrical box in a rain-tight fit. The rain-tight fitting includes a fitting body having a leading end adapted to connect to the knockout of an electrical box and a trailing end adapted to create a rain-tight fit with an end of electrical metal tubing (EMT). One or more sleeves are seated within a trailing bore of the fitting body and are held in place by a fastener. A necked-down wall portion on the sleeve contacts the outer periphery of the EMT as it is inserted into the trailing end of the fitting. After the EMT is fully inserted within the trailing end of the fitting, the fastener is tightened to drive the fastener against the outer periphery of the EMT, thereby providing a grounding path between the fitting, the electrical box, and the EMT.
