I have always heard them called service LB's -- thus the SLB. I also have not seen them in pvc but that doesn't mean they aren't out there.

I think the S would be a problem.

I always thought it was short LB since they are shorter than LB's

If you need a standard PVC LB, no problem. Even the Dome Depot has them.

If you have space restrictions, use a JB and drill it.

Beware of wire bending radius if applicable.

What would you use it for? Even an standard 2" LB is probably too small to put the wires in if this is for a service.

I have never used them for a service but I have used 1/2" slb because they are smaller and a bit tidier. Of course I was using small wire-- #12. I can't imagine 3/0 copper in these.:grin:

I guess I'm outta luck.

It will contain 4 #2 THHN and 1 #4 RHW. 2" conduit is upsized for this application so I wanted to use a smaller profile LB to stay closer to the surface of the structure
