Rigid Conduit is also known as what?

Explanation:
Rigid Conduit is commonly called rigid metal conduit. This is the heavy-duty metal conduit, usually steel (or sometimes aluminum), that uses threaded joints to connect sections and provides strong mechanical protection for the conductors inside. It’s used in exposed or outdoor installations where durability matters. The other options refer to different products: EMT is a lighter, thin-walled conduit with non-threaded connections, and metal-clad cable is armored cable, not a conduit.
