    Hampton bay track light extension
    I'd like to come out of the back end of a Hampton Bay track light with wiring in conduit to go around an obstacle. Then hook the conduit & wiring back into another 4'section of track light.

    The Hampton Bay connectors that allow conduit(or flex conduit) to be attached to the track only fit in one end of the track. The other end is opposite and the same type of Hampton Bay connector won't fit into it, as it is the tail or back end. This has to do with the ground side of the rail and can't be switched.

    Is there a way to come off the back end of the track with a connector that allows me to attach conduit & wires to go around an obstacle. Then connect into another 4' section of track?

    Thanks in advance,

    Don't know if you can do safely. The small "Live End" is nice, but like you say, can plug in one end. If you were to use the Large twist on, (kind of ugly) could work. Don't know if manufacturer suggest against this. Cleaner look, would be separate line to second live end.
