Step 1

Using a saw, nylon twine or pipe cutter, cut away the damaged section of conduit, exposing the existing cables. Make sure the edges of the existing conduit are clean and straight.

WARNING! - DO NOT CUT INTO ELECTRICAL LINES WHEN REMOVING DAMAGED PIPE, AS SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH MAY OCCUR.

If needed, repair the damaged cables.

Step 2

Measure the gap between the ends of the existing damaged conduit, then cut two half pieces of split conduit one inch shorter than the gap.

For repairs requiring lengths longer than five feet, a Split Coupling can be used to join two sections of the split conduit end to end.

Step 3

Snap the two half pieces of split conduit together around the exposed cables, leaving a ½ inch gap on each end of the repair. If a water-tight seal is desired, fill the locking ridge with silicone before snapping the split conduit together.

(It may be helpful to use a pair of Channel Locks or ratcheting pliers along the locking ridge to snap the two halves together)

Step 4

Once the split conduit is snapped in place, apply PVC cement around the ends of the existing conduit and the ends of the split conduit. Attach one split adapter coupling on each repair seam by snapping it in place around the ends of the existing conduit and the split conduit.
