Conduit from attic to closest.

Is the wire supposed to be in conduit through the wall and attic to the breaker. The 6 solid in a raceway is a violation too. Next would be drilling holes through the joist and threading the. Can i run it.

Special connectors are used to secure conduit to boxes and to join lengths of conduit together to form long straight runs or bends. I am concerned with the integrity of the wire and want to run a new wire from my attic which is closest to the fixture to my breaker box in the basement. Of course removing the floor area in the general area will solve the issue but the drill bit will locate exactly where the access will be needed. And running conduit up the outside.

What is the code for electrical wiring in an attic going over the joists and be stapled or drilled through. From the nearest edge of the framing member or furring strips where nails or screws are likely to penetrate.

Emt would be fine too but dealing with 10 sticks of conduit in an attic may be a challenge. Hi i had the builder install a conduit from the attic to the basement when i purchased the home. The boxes connectors and conduit form a wire enclosure system called a raceway. As long as it isn t very accessible up there so physical damage isn t a concern cable or flex conduit seems easier.

Conduit always terminates at some type of electrical box or at fixed equipment that also serves as a box. Once located you need only remove the floor where needed to get to and from the wall space.
