I’m about to start on a concrete project that requires some electrical conduit run. I need to know the proper size conduit to run for a 220v line from a 50 amp sub panel mounted on the side of the house, to its final destination approximately 25 feet away.
The conduit will be buried 18” below grade, and I’ve been told 3/4” will be “fine”. I know air space around the wire is what sets the minimum requirements, but I’d like to make sure that it will be good in the heat we get here in the desert.
What’s your thoughts?
