Electrical Metallic Tubing (EMT) cannot be threaded because it is typically made from thin-walled steel or aluminum, which lacks the structural integrity needed for threading. The process of threading would weaken the tubing, making it less effective for its intended use as a conduit for electrical wiring. Additionally, EMT is designed to be connected using fittings such as couplings and connectors, which provide a secure and reliable junction without the need for threading.
What else can I help you with?
What kind of fitting must be used when connecting a threaded pulling elbow to emt?
A coupling
What is imc pipe?
Intermediate Metal Conduit (IMC) is a steel tubing heavier than EMT but lighter than RMC. It may be threaded.
Is an EMT certification the same from state to state?
In fact, EMT certification is not the same from state to state. Some states have their own certification process and only recognize EMT's that have their certification. Other states participate in a national EMT registry.
Can you use EMT in class 2 division 2 locations?
No. The definition of Class 2 - Division 2 is - Where ignitable concentrations of combustible dust are present within the atmosphere under abnormal operating conditions. A threaded metal conduit orcables approved for hazardous locations must be used. This eliminates the use of EMT (Electrical Metallic Tubing).
How do you become an EMT Paramedic after certification of EMT-basic?
It depends from state to state, but most requires you to work a full year as an EMT Basic before you can become an EMT Paramedic. You need to take the EMT Paramedic training and certification.
Where can I find emt jobs that are available for hire?
To find a job on emt, you should go to this site www.indeed.com/q-EMT-jobs.html. It will be easier for you if you already have an EMT certification and you can have a good work.
What is the purpose of an EMT training course?
EMT training courses prepare an individal to pass EMT accreditation exams in order to work as an EMT Basic or EMT Paramedic. Both provide emergency medical care to the injured or ill in a number of settings.
What is the difference between an emt and an emt b?
EMT, or Emergency Medical Technician, is the blanket term. There are several levels of EMTs. The nationally accepted levels are as follows: EMT-Basic, EMT-Intermediate (85), EMT-Basic Advanced, EMT-Intermediate (99), EMT-Paramedic. You often hear about "Paramedics" as though everyone on an ambulance is a Paramedic, but in reality, EMT-Bs are the most common responders. EMT's will respond out of a station or a fire department, and they typically cover a much smaller area. EMT-Paramedics might respond to more rural areas from farther away, depending on the local and financial availability of Paramedics within an area.
What are the Ranks in the EMS?
cfr - first responder emt b - basic emt cc - critical care emt p - paramedic
What are the disadvantages of an EMT?
disadvantage? In reference to...? EMT is basic life support. Paramedic is advanced life support. Without the equipment, the paramedic is no better than an EMT. As a matter of fact, a doctor without is no better than an EMT either. EMT is good training to have when all else is gone, no hospital, no equipment, EMT training is vital.
What does a regular emt job pay?
EMT job pays $38,000
What is the difference between emt and paramedic?
Let's break this down to the US version. There's are 3 levels of pre-hospital care in the US. The EMT system in the US is changing, it used to be: EMT-B(Basic), EMT-I(Intermediate) and EMT-P(Paramedic). This system is changing in most states to EMR, EMT, and EMT-P. The EMT is the mid level of pre-hospital care. This level usually requires about a year to a year and a half of college education and training. An EMT-I(EMT) can do some more advanced skills then the EMT-B(EMR) such as basic cardiac monitoring, cricothyrotomy and more medications. ALL levels of pre-hospital care are considered EMTs, but only the EMT-P is a Paramedic. The Paramedic is the most advanced level of EMT and requires about 2 years or college education and training. The Paramedic may do everything the EMT can do plus intubation, 12 lead ECG, administer 20 medications(depends on protocol) and more. Paramedics are Advanced Life Support(ALS) providers, the EMT-B is Basic Life Support(BLS) and the EMT-I is sort of a mix. Hopefully this helped answer your question. It's OK to call a Paramedic an EMT but you can't call a EMT a Paramedic.
