How many degree bend permitted in conduit run?

Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hz supply service.A total of 360 degrees between openings, regardless of distance, is the NEC's limitation. From experience I know that any time you go beyond 270 degrees you are going to have a difficult pull regardless of what other steps you take.360 degrees = 4 - 90 degree bends270 degrees = 3 - 90 degree bendsAs always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.

What are electrical sleeves used for?

In the electrical industry there are many different types of sleeves used. There are insulation sleeves, linesman's high voltage sleeves and conduit sleeves to name a few. The insulation sleeve is used for the protection of electrical conductors. Linesman's sleeves are used for extensions to the protective rubber gauntlets that they wear when working on high tension wiring systems. Conduit sleeves are used when a broken conduit needs to be repaired in situ.
