How 'bout a "noodle"

Sparky,

"a Jake....
a 90 deg fitting, not the LB, smaller, with a cover"

I would call that a "corner ell" (for elbow I guess)

Noodle ?? - I'll bite -

In my area we usually call them hold-its. It could be some sort of a name brand for box support????

Noodle = Nuetral .....jsut be carful with that one in mixed company....

hold-its = madisons, or battleships...

I suppose the guys at the supply counter's have hear 'em all....

Ok....how about a "Frosty" , keep in mind i'm running a lot of pipe out in the cold up here....

A contractor I once worked for had every catalogue number memorized and that's what he called the materials!

"Hand me that PT70-M" (barrell crimp)
"Give me that CXW" (2-1/8" Deep 1 Gang metal box)
"We need a box of 5320's " (duplex receptacles)

Drove me nuts for awhile, but now I see why you tend to remember them that way after a few years!
