Abstract
A ninety degree electrical fitting for connecting electrical cable to an electrical box. The ninety degree electrical fitting includes a connector body with a leading end and a trailing end, a snap ring connected to the leading end, and a clip member connected to the trailing end. A leading flange and a box engagement flange on the leading end of the connector body define a means for retaining the snap ring on the connector body. A clip member connected to the connector body provides a means for securing an electrical cable to the trailing end of the fitting. Internal walls on the connector body define an internal passageway having a wide turn radius, to enable wiring leads from an electrical cable to pass easily through the internal passageway of the connector body. The ninety degree snap fit electrical fitting provides good electrical continuity between the outer sheath of an electrical cable, the electrical box, and the fitting.
