I have a 100 amp subbreaker with no circuits on it yet that sits against a block wall adjacent to the crawlspace. I want to run some new circuits through the crawlspace to the kitchen. My main breaker (which is in an inconvenient wall to pull cable to) has metal knockouts and I am familiar with the use of romex cable clamps to secure the conduit and prevent sharp edges. But the subbreaker just has a short 3" dia. plastic pipe that terminates at the other side of the block wall. How do I secure the romex? My wiring book and home inspection book do not discuss this situation--they only say to use clamps to secure cable when exiting any box.
If I run the conduit directly out the pipe and staple it to the joists about 1' above the pipe termination, there's nothing sharp to cut the wire, but isn't there a danger that someone could snag the loose conduit hanging out of the pipe and it off a breaker? What's the correct way to do this? Is there an NEC code for this? The wire feeding the subbreaker is completely enclosed in the same type of PVC conduit running into the box--but I can't do this for multiple circuits running out, can I?
