Panduit PWBPF6X18BL Formed Tee Fitting

Overview

The Panduit PWBPF6X18BL is a formed tee-intersection bracket designed to provide a stable, code-compliant connection point for Panduit Wire Basket systems. Constructed from steel with a durable black powder-coated finish, this fitting is essential for creating complex cable routing pathways in commercial and industrial environments. It ensures proper support and ground continuity for the wire basket, meeting stringent electrical codes for equipment grounding conductors. This specific model is engineered for 6-inch high by 18-inch wide wire basket sections, ensuring a precise fit within the Panduit system architecture.

Compatibility

This tee-intersection bracket is specifically designed for use with Panduit's 6-inch high and 18-inch wide wire basket sections. It is intended for use within the Panduit wire basket product family, ensuring seamless integration and structural integrity. While not a component of active surveillance systems, it is critical for the organized and safe routing of power and data cables that feed IP cameras, NVRs, and network switches.

Installation Notes

The PWBPF6X18BL is UL Classified for its suitability as an Equipment Grounding Conductor in accordance with Sections 392.3(C) and 392.7(B) of the NEC. This classification mandates specific installation practices to ensure proper grounding continuity. Installers must ensure that the bracket is securely fastened to the wire basket sections, maintaining electrical contact to facilitate the grounding path. Proper torque on fasteners is critical to prevent loosening and maintain conductivity over time. The powder-coated finish should not impede electrical contact at connection points.
