Electricians cannot find the correct listed straps for securing LFNC (Liquidtight Flexible Nonmetallic Conduit) because common one-hole straps are not explicitly listed for LFNC use.

Standard one-hole straps are not listed for LFNC, causing confusion about which straps are code-compliant; manufacturers do not clearly label which straps are approved for LFNC.
