    Is galv conduit containing insulated and sheathed cables (e.g. T&E) still an exposed-conductive part?

    Eh up :) As per the title, "Is galv conduit containing insulated and sheathed cables (e.g. T&E) still an exposed-conductive part?" Clearly, if it contained unsheathed singles, it obviously is. If it's not an exposed-conductive part (and it's not extraneous in the case I'm thinking of) then it...

    Why? Is metal conduit so thick

    I have been given a short length of Emt tube from America , which is basically their ‘go to’ produce for surface wiring. It is thinner than our version and much easier to bend than our version. I would say it’s not much thicker than copper plumbers pipe. But imo offers good mechanical strength...
