Burial cable vs normal cable in conduit

Sep 28, 2005 1 Replies

OK first I want to thank all of you for giving me feedback advice, and information on the wiring of my "shed".



One "last" question. If I run conduit the whole way out, do I need UF cable? This would make it a bit less $$, and perhaps a little easier to pull. I will be burying the conduit for about 10 feet of the 80ft, but mostly it will be under the ouse and then a deck off the back.



Thanks



No, if the conduit is continuous you can pull individual conductors. Just be sure they are rated for wet location like THWN. You will probably have to use expansion fittings where your "PVC" comes up out of the ground
