A street fitting is a fitting that is designed to attach to another fitting, It can also be one that is design to connect two or more fittings together. It can be destinguished by its male end or ends that will fitt snuggly into the female end of another fitting of the same diameter. They or sometimes used to simplify a connection, to make a connection in a tight or unusual spot, and to change direction. A street fitting can be an ell (elbow), a tee, an adapter, etc.

How did street' originate in the plumbing term street ell?

A "street ell" may have gotten it's name because it describes a 90˚ fitting particularly useful in tight, street ditches. When installing water pipes under a street, or from a water service, again under the street, into a home or business, this street ell allows one to change pipe direction with one less fitting, and in less space, than with a standard ell.

What is a FTG x C copper fitting?

C = cupped end - the type you would slide over another pipe to make a sweat connection FTG = fitting end - the type that slides inside a cupped end, also called a "street" fitting M = male pipe threads FE (sometimes listed as just F, not correct)= female pipe threads The "X" is "by", so C X C is "cupped by cupped", a fitting with two ends such as a coupling or elbow, both cupped for sweating onto a pipe or fitting end. C X C X C would be a fitting with three ends such as a tee, all cupped. C X FTG could be a street elbow or a reducing bushing, one part slides over a pipe, the other inside another cupped fitting. C is indeed a cupped fitting. CMP is compression, but there is no such thing as a copper fitting with a compression connection. There are brass and plastic compression fittings that will fit copper pipe, but not copper compression fittings.
