I want to know, if I run Type SE-r cable 2-2-2-4 Al from main panel thru a basement to an LB or junction box, can I then strip off the sheath and pull the conductors thru Schedule 40 PVC conduit underground to a shed/workshop?
I know I cannot run Type SE cable underground even in conduit, but if I strip the sheath off, from that point aren't they considered individual conductors?
The bare wire will be my EGC, I know it can be bare or insulated aluminum, 250.120 (B), It can not come in contact with the earth or masonry, or where subject to corrosive conditions. Is the inside of an underground conduit corrosive? I know it's considered a wet environment but does that equal corrosive?
What do you think??
