ABSTRACT:
A thermoplastic breakout fitting is attached to an axially slit corrugated conduit which houses a plurality of electrical leads. The breakout fitting has first and second portions which comprise semitubular bases which are attached to each other by an integral flexible hinge at a longitudinal side edge of the semitubular bases so that the portions can be closed about the corrugated conduit. The hinged portions have a collar and a closure which form a housing which communicates with the corrugated conduit for receiving breakout leads which are passed through an aperture through a panel. The collar is attached to the panel by a flange of the collar which engages one side ot the panel, a pilot ring which supports the collar in the aperture in the radial direction, and a plurality of circumferentially spaced deflectable lock arms which have catches at their free ends which engage the opposite side of the panel.
