I am curious. I understand when running conduit the 360 degree rule, and you are supposed to run the pipe first and then pull the wires through. But, how do you deal with the 90 degree fittings for flexible conduit? You certainly can't pull wire through them, is it ok to pull the wire through the conduit before you attach the final 90 degree fitting? :?

See code section 300 .18 (A). An exposed raceway with a removable cover is exempt from the section. So is installing utilization equipment, such as a whip to an HVAC unit.

Eta: there is also the exception for short sections of raceways that are used for physical protection, though I do not think it applies to your question.
