Trunking and pipe

[i=p/u]

Hello starting new job on Monday, some will say a proper sparks job instead of facility maintenance. This job involves trunking and pipe which I little experience in installing.. I've told the guy this and he said long as you don't ask what's a running coupler etc. so feel fine. But anytime I installed pipe or trunking it was minimal as we just tapping off or adding on ..

any tips I'm all ears .. Was considering buying 18v angle grinder to at least speed up on cutting trunking . I their a certain disk type to buy, think I heard someone say the real thin ones are best, wee link.. Thx

Home for silly season, wouldn't miss it. Helicopters at night are more soothing at home.

Did anyone mention tube? Can I call it tube? I've always called it tube...
Actually reading back on the thread to find out where all this came from, no-one mentioned a TCT chopsaw either. Would never be without one doing more than a length or two of trunking.

That's a very good question, when does a pipe become a tube, or vice versa?

i'd say a pipe is something that is used to carry fluids.

having said that, it wouldn't bother me either way - tube, conduit, pipe - each to his own.

i still call a lamp a bulb, though.
