How many number 12 THHN conductors are allowed in half inch EMT?

According to the 2005 NEC Annex C, table C.1 you are allowed nine #12 THHN conductors in a 1/2" trade size EMT conduit. If your conduit run is any length at all, you would be wise to increase the conduit size to 3/4". as pulling 9 #12's for any length in 1/2" EMT is very difficult.

What size conduit do you need to install a 0000 wire?

4/0 gauge wire, depending on its insulation type is rated from 230-260 amps. Assuming you are running a new power supply with the 4/0 wire, you will have a minimum or three 4/0 conductors and a ground wire for a single phase power supply and four conductors with ground for a three phase power supply. Three 4/0 wires require a minimum 2 inch conduit. Four 4/0 wires require a minimum 2 and 1/2 inch conduit. These conduit sizes I'm quoting come directly from the NEC, the National Electric Code. These sizes of conduit are determined by the basic rule that all the conductors in a conduit are not to exceed 40% of the volume of the pipe. The other 60% of air space is required for heat dissipation.


What if your making a 90 degree bend on12 inch conduit if your conduit bender has a 5 inch take up and you need a 13 inch rise how far from the starting point would you place your bend mark?

using half inch conduit for a 13 in 90, the bender takes up 5 inches so you subtract 5 inches from 13 inches and place the arrow at 8 inches.
