Imperial question

[polo1]

Apologies, blonde moment! Can anyone remind me what the sizing/thread was/is on imperial conduit lugs? Cheers Edit - would it be 2BA by any chance????

 

[telectrix]

conduit lugs? explain.

 

[pepparz]

yeah there the little brass 2BA screws.

 

[polo1]

Sorry, meant conduit box.

 

[telectrix]

ah. assume he means the screw holes in the conduit boxes, then.

 

[Knobhead]

2BA or retap to 5mm.

Definately 2BA, Funnily enough I took some fluorescents down in a classroom today and they were held up on conduit boxes with 2 BAs, small world lol

 

[telectrix]

grew up with BA and BSF. meters were for putting shillings in to get the leccy on.
