I need to size a pullbox that is for a system that is over 1,000 volt. There are (4) 4'' conduits in 2x2 configuration, and it will be in angle pulls. According to 314.70 (B) (1), the box shall not be less than 36 times the outside diameter, over sheath, of the largest cable or conductor. Additonal distance will be increased by the amount of the sum of the outside diameters, of all other conductor entries through the same wall of the box. I know I will be using 500kcmils conductors; outer diameter will be 1.25in, and there are additonal (11) 500kcmils through the same wall of the box.
This is the calculation I have:
1.25*(36) + (1.25)(11) = 58.75''
From the calculation I know the dimension should be at least 5' X 5', is there a standard pullbox size for that dimension? And how do I calculate the depth of the box?
