Electrical Conduit

[ronkruk]

Is there a code that states the length conduit can be run prior to installing a pull box? I need the code not the recommendation.

You're only limited to the length rope, fishtape, rodder, etc. and how long the conductor is available from the manufacturer.

That and 360? of total bends. Some job specs and local codes may have a limit but it's not in the NEC.

I agree, it's another one of those "urban codes" that you need a pull box every 100'.

Agreed, There is no NEC section that limits the length of raceway before you need a pull box.

I have had many engineer's specifications that did include a 100' limit to the length of a raceway before a pull box is need though.

358.26
As stated earlier length of the run has nothing to do with it, but the amount of bends does.
