Most of our services around here are in SE cable so I have little experience pulling larger wires in conduit, but I've got one I need to do in conduit. The question is, what's the reasonableness of a 60' pull of three 4/0 compact aluminum conductors thru 2" Schedule 40 PVC with two gentle site bent 90's (about 18" radius each). Please rate as:
No sweat
Average
Difficult (but possible)
Crazy
Any tips other than lots of lube would also be appreciated. My other option is to put an LB half way thru, but 4/0 is just at the limit of what can be crammed into a 2" LB, so I'd probably have to go 2-1/2 for that.
Thanks in advance,
Mark
