Re: Question about buried electrical cable
|
Text of the message: |
I don't think you want to run RMC (rigid metal conduit) under ground - it will rust. I'd run the line in NMC (the grey plastic stuff). This way, you dont need to worry about grounding the actual conduit (but there will be a requirement to run a ground back to the main panel or have seperate grounding rods for the sub panel). How the conduit exits and enters the building will depend on the specific circumstances, but there are fittings and junction boxes that can make this easier/neater. Some inspectors might also want to see a bell-end fitting on the conduit where the wire exits. Finally, whatever conduit you run, you must assume it will fill with water at some point. Therefore you don't want to run "Romex", as it's not waterproof. Run UF (underground feeder) type cable. Richard Johnson PE Camano Island, WA . |
