Pulling Calcs

[eds]

Never actually have done a pulling calculation, just curious if the number i have come up with is fairly accurate. 730 is my number

Drop out of ct cabinet 3' hit a 90, go 10' hit another 90, go 70' hit a 30, go 120 hit a 30, go 4' hit a 90 rise 4' to panel.
3'' pvc, all underground except to panel and ct cabinet. 3/0 copper thhn/thwn conductors, 4 total. Planning on using a maxis 3k to pull with. Wire to be on 4 individual spinners grouped together.

4-#3/0 should fly in.

I would love to pull 4-3/0 in 3".

Not really worried about the pull, just have never done a pull calculation on anything

What did you use to calculate the number 730 you've mentioned?

Also when you have a second please update your profile to include your occupation and location. Long time members often had their info deleted when we had a software change a few years ago. Thanks!

I'm not familiar with that app. What does the number 730 mean?

Pulling force required I think. I added each section into the app then added all the numbers together
