Why are you only allowed 360 degrees of bend jn a electrcal condit run?

Any more than four 90 degree bents (equaling up to 360 degrees) or a combination of other bends will make it quite difficult to pull the wires into that pipe.
This is why the electrical code prohibits more than 360 degrees. If you have to put more bends than that, place a junction box on the line after the first 360 degrees. This way you pull to the junction box and then use that junction box so continue the rest of the way.

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.

How many degrees per meter to bend 16 pipe to a 10 D bend?
To calculate the degrees per meter required to bend a 16" pipe to a 10D bend, you would first need to determine the bend radius using the formula: Bend Radius = Pipe Diameter x Bend Factor. For a 10D bend, the bend factor is 10 (D = diameter) so the bend radius would be 16 x 10 = 160 inches. To find the degrees per meter, you would then calculate the angle of the bend (usually 90 degrees for a standard 10D bend) divided by the total length of the bend in meters (which would be the circumference of the bend radius).

What is the maximum degrees bending for conduit?
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.
