Abstract

A multi-channel duct for enclosing conductors, cables, wires, power lines, communications lines and the like. The multi-channel duct includes an elongated base with an elongated divider dividing the base into two channels, and a pair of elongated covers with the outer cover overlying both channels and the inner cover overlying one of the channels. Preferably, the inner cover is integrally formed with the divider and has a precurved portion for preloading the inner cover when in its closed position. The divider and inner cover are preferably detachable from the base by a frangible seam for converting the two channel duct to a single channel duct.
