We typically use a RMC close nipple at the top and one at the bottom for the connection of the two sections.

augie47 Moderator Staff member Location Tennessee Occupation State Electrical Inspector (Retired) Jan 26, 2014 #4 A lot of the guys here use PVC "box adapters" and couplings between sections. Gives a nice smooth box entry that usually takes of less room than a nipple & bushing and I am told it's less expensive. http://www.carlonsales.com/techinfo/brochures/conduit/Conduit_Fittings_Schedule_40_and_80.pdf
