Abstract
A press fitting for an electrical conduit includes a fitting body and a press connector in a press-connection section of the fitting body to allow press-fit connection to a conduit. A conduit retainer in the press fitting releasably grips and removably retains the electrical conduit in the fitting body before the press-connection section is deformed radially inward during the press connection process. A socket in the press fitting has a cross-sectional diameter that tapers in a direction away from the press-connection section.
