Conduit Bends Between Pull Points
What is the acceptable combination of conduit bends between pull points?
a) Three 90° bends
b) One 90° bend followed by two 45° bends
c) Two 90° bends followed by a 30° bend
d) Four 45° bends
Answer:
All the given options (a, b, c, and d) are acceptable combinations of conduit bends between pull points, as none of them exceed the total allowed limit of 360°.
Between pull points in conduit systems, the combination of bends must not exceed 360° to ensure that cables can be pulled through without excessive difficulty. The acceptable combinations of conduit bends between pull points include:
- Three 90° bends (270° total)
- One 90° bend followed by two 45° bends (180° total)
- Two 90° bends followed by a 30° bend (210° total)
- Four 45° bends (180° total)
Each of these options is acceptable because none exceeds the 360° total limit. Therefore, the answer to the question is that all options (a, b, c, and d) represent an acceptable combination of conduit bends between pull points.
