Yes they can. If the feeders are of different sizes, then a conduit fill calculation must be made to ascertain that the conduit does not become overfilled. Cross sectional areas of the conductors are found and it is then determined what the conduit cross sectional fill will allow.
What else can I help you with?
Do you have to run wiring in conduit if its in the ground?
Wire in conduit for underground feeders has to have an insulationrating for wet and damp locations. In the marketplace there is also wiring thathas an insulation rating for direct burial that does not need to be installed into conduit.
Is it legal to support a conduit from another conduit of the same size?
No, the conduit has to be supported individually from a supportive structure. The spacing of the strapping is related to the size of the conduit.
Can you run 110 and 220 volt circuits in the same conduit?
Yes, 120 and 240 volts can be run in the same conduit.
What are the main principles concerning conduit bodies?
Conduit bodies are used to provide pulling access in a run of conduit, to conserve space where a full size bend radius would be impractical, to allow more bends to be made in a section of conduit or to split a conduit path into multiple directions.
Can a three phase circuit be installed in the same conduit or in different conduits?
The conductors of any three phase circuit must be run in the same conduit. If the circuit requires a neutral, it must also run with the conductors in the same conduit. (If they were to be run in more than one conduit or raceway, the circuit would not operate properly.)

Can you mix line and load in same conduit?
No
Can you put two wires in one conduit and two wires in another conduit of the same circuit?
No, each conduit should only contain wires from the same circuit. Mixing circuits in a conduit can lead to interference and safety hazards. It is always best practice to keep conductors of the same circuit together to prevent potential issues.
What is the multiplier for 45 degree offset in conduit bending?
Back set for all conduit sizes is not the same. The greater the diameter of the conduit the length of back set increases. Without the diameter size of the conduit, an answer can not be given.
Can you use plumbing PVC for electrical wiring?
No you shouldn't. It will fail inspection. Use electrical (grey) conduit. It is about the same price and has the proper electrical insulating properties required. The thicker PVC(schedule 40) is best, although schedule 80 is acceptable. (Schedule 40 is required for underground service feeders.)
Can you run parallel 4 ought aluminum conductors in the same 4 inch conduit?
Yes. Actually they should be run in the same conduit. You don't ever want to run parallel separately.
Why you use inter trip relays for radial feeders for more than two transfomer on same feeders?
To accelearte tripping @ remote end
Is a separate ground wire required for each circuit in a conduit?
No, a single ground wire can be used for multiple circuits in a conduit as long as it meets the sizing requirements based on the largest circuit conductor in the conduit. The ground wire provides a path for fault current to safely return to the source in case of a fault or short circuit.
