The minimum size you can use is 3/4 conduit. The code allows for a maximum of 4 each # 6 gauge wires in a 3/4 inch pipe. You'll likely be running 3 ea # 6s, two hots and the neutral and a #10 ground wire.
Maximum power rating describes the maximum power at which a device can operate without reaching an excessive temperature. For example, in the case of a resistor, if its maximum power rating is exceeded, then it may burn out.
The grounding system of a distribution must be from zero ohms to a maximum of two ohms. This is usually obtained by bonding all metallic parts back to the distribution centre with a wire capable of handling the circuits fault current if the circuit should ground out. The ground wire in cable sets is used for this purpose.
The PVC conduit fill chart provides information on the maximum number of cables that can be safely installed in a conduit based on the size of the conduit and the diameter of the cables.
The conduit wire capacity chart provides information on the maximum number of wires that can be safely installed in a conduit based on the wire size and type of insulation.
The maximum degrees of bending allowed for conduit typically ranges from 90 to 360 degrees, depending on the type and size of the conduit. It is important to consult local building codes and manufacturer specifications to determine the specific maximum degrees of bending allowed for a particular conduit. Incorrect bending can cause damage to the conduit and affect the performance of the electrical system.
The wire to conduit chart provides information on the maximum number and size of wires that can safely fit inside a conduit based on the conduit size.
The maximum fill capacity allowed for NEC conduit fill in electrical installations is 40.
The maximum fill capacity for a CAT 6 conduit, taking into account conduit fill requirements, is typically around 40 to 60 of the total cross-sectional area of the conduit. This allows for proper cable installation and airflow to prevent overheating.
The maximum fill capacity for a 1/2 conduit is typically around 40 to 60 of the total area inside the conduit. This allows for proper installation of wires and cables without overcrowding.
The Cat6 conduit fill chart provides information on the maximum number of Cat6 cables that can be safely installed in a conduit based on the conduit size.
The electrical pipe fill chart provides information on the maximum number of conductors that can be safely installed in a conduit based on the size of the conduit and the size of the conductors.
The NEC PVC conduit fill table provides information on the maximum number of conductors that can be safely installed in a PVC conduit based on the size of the conduit and the size of the conductors.
Adding an extra length of shaft on the existing shaft to take extra pulleys will put an extra load on the bearings supporting the shaft. In the long term this would shorten the life of the bearings. The makers might be able to supply more information like the side-load specification for the bearings. If in doubt support the outer end of the shaft.
The PVC conduit fill table provides information on the maximum number and size of cables that can be safely installed in a PVC conduit based on its diameter.
