When using indoor trough in a residential setting what material do you guys use for nipples between panels and trough? PVC, EMT, or RMC?
I have also done RMC in the past a few times here and thereWe usually use RMC nipples for some reason. Guess that is just what the boss man usually supplies.
Or a PVC coupling and 2 box adaptersI try to always use PVC so there is no bonding necessary. You can use PVC "meter offsets" as offset nipples. You can use a PVC connector (male adapter) with a box adapter to make a close nipple.
And two Pvc bushings if the wire size requires it.Or a PVC coupling and 2 box adapters
Box adapters dont have threadsAnd two Pvc bushings if the wire size requires it.
Yes that set up works awesome when you can't move the panels or trough, like adding a sub panel in between a upper and lower trough, nipples above and bellow panel.Or a PVC coupling and 2 box adapters
That's a little wider than using a connector.Or a PVC coupling and 2 box adapters
yepThat's a little wider than using a connector.
But then you have to bond the trough, correct?I try to always use PVC so there is no bonding necessary. You can use PVC "meter offsets" as offset nipples. You can use a PVC connector (male adapter) with a box adapter to make a close nipple.
Are you an electrician?But then you have to bond the trough, correct?
