Meant to say "half inch Proof Coil vs half inch size BBB" anchor chain.
2750 Pounds fro 1/2 inch gravel is a good estimate. Actual size of the aggregate and water content.
If a diagram is smaller than actual size it is called a reduction.
Actual hole size for 1 inch conduit is 1.362"
A trade size hole for a 2-1/2" EMT conduit connector, the hole needs to be 2-7/8" in diameter. A 3" rigid conduit can also use this size hole without the lock nuts falling into the hole.

For new 200 amp services the conduit size should be 3 inch PVC.

EMT is electrical metallic tubing. In the electrical trade there are nominal sizes expressed as a standard size. To answer your question you must state the conduit size in either electrical terms or in standard size terms to get a conversion size.For example standard size 1/2" EMT has an actual diameter size of 3/4" and the 1/2"EMT connector for the 1/2" EMT conduit needs a 7/8" hole.Likewise with 3/4" EMT the actual outside diameter is 15/16" and the 3/4" EMT connector needs a 1-1/8" hole.
