Can you put PVC Conduit into main electrical panel?
Question:
Answers:
you can use a male threaded pvc connector and a lock nut to terminate pvc conduit to the panel
yes you can run it into the box but I would get a threaded male adapter to put in one of the knock out holes and put a nut on it ( you can buy them at lowes or home depot) to give it a more finished look
Under most circumstances PVC conduit is acceptable. You can't use PVC as a mast for an overhead entrance, but other than that I can't think of any time you could not use it in a residential installation.
sure can it will run into a panel just like ridge or emt and you can use it as a mast for overhead service as long as you dont pull off of the mast I seen it on a apartment complex 2 inch pvc as the riser
yes you can make sure that you are running a ground wire. This is very important due to the fact that with metallic conduit it can be used as the ground if only running two wires (L1 and Nuetral) so you must run a third wire to occomadate Ground.
Is it residential or commercial? Codes are usually different for these. The thing to remember about conduit is it is there to protect the wire from you and you from the wire.
