Good question
My first thought is not observed. EMT usually threads in.Is it secure? What is the temp rating? Is it used for grounding.? Is it uv rated? I would just call it improper use of materials (I recommend a Licensed Electrician examine and evaluate . ) |

lol....it's a plumbing fitting....nope I dont believe any Municipal would pass that so it leaves us to either question the municipal or check records to see if an upgrade was done without a permit.

Please Note:

If the say it's allowed, which it's not, I would ask for documentation from the manufacturer. I have a feeling they wouldn't be able to produce any since this product was not designed to be used for this application.

Yes, it is wrong, but from a purely practical point-of-view, not too high on my list. I'd bet that you are likely to find several more hazardous conditions at that location
