I will have two sets of 2" PVC conduit in an underground junction box or hand-hole enclosure.
One set will enter from one side. One will exit directly opposite (straight pull). The other will exit to the side (angle pull). All of the conduits will enter the hand-hole enclosure from the bottom, probably with a 45 degree angle (for easier wire pulling).
What section of the NEC do I use for sizing the hand-hole enclosure? Do I use 314.28(A)(1) and (2)? Or can I use 314.30(A), which references 314.28(A)(2) Exception?
If I use 314.30(A), is there a minimum length and width. 314.30(A) does not indicate that a minimum length or width is required, only a depth.
Basically, I am confused on how to properly size underground junction boxes.
Thank you.
