When calculating the bending radius of multiconductor, non-shielded cable, do you use the diameter of the individual conductor, or the O.D. of the multiconductor cable? 300.34 seems to address multiconductor cable WITH shielded conductors, but not w/o shield.

That would be the O.D. of the overall cable. But, the manufacturer's recommendation needs to agree with your calc.

the usual bend is figured at a minimum of 5 times the diameter of the overall cable
