Conduit Sizing Calculation

10 - Conduit Sizing Calculation
Sizing Conduits - Fill Factor

Fill factor or conduit fill, states the maximum amount of space that
the installed cables should occupy in a given size conduit, expressed as
a percentage of the interior volume. On the subject of fill factor
percentages, Consider the percentages that are mandated by the
National Electrical Code, Chapter 9, Table 1 . where the table
indicates number of conductors, the word conductors, may also
indicate multi-conductor cables. For example, if we were planning
to pull three cables into a conduit, the combined cross-sectiona
area of the three cables, must not exceed 40% of the conduits interior
volume. Because the table does not specify high or low-voltage cable(s),
it can cable(s),

National Electrical Code, Chapter 9, Table 1

Table 1 is based on common conditions of proper cabling and alignment
of conductors, where the length of the pull and number of bends are
within reasonable limits. It should be recognized that, for certain
conditions, a larger size conduit, lesser conduit fill should be considered.
The smallest percent fill, on the table is for two conductors (no more
than 31% of the conduits interior volume). The reason for this is that
two conductors, of the same size, collectively form an oval shape. One
, or any number of cables greater than two, will tend to form a circular
shape (see figure ZZ).

Calculating Fill Factor

When we calculate fill factor, normally we start out knowing how many
cables we need to get from point A to point B. The question is: What size
conduit? Or, sometimes a conduit will be existing and we will need to
calculate the amount of cables that we may install in it. Once you master
the principles of NEC Table 4, and the formula for cross-sectional area,
you can easily find either.

Determine the cross-sectional area(CSA), for each cable, simply add the

Radius of Bends
To comply with the NEC, need only use a standard conduit bending devise
, or purchase pre-fabricated bends.Manufacturers of conduits and
their bending apparatuses, make their products to comply with the NEC
table 343-10.On bend radius for Nonmettalic Conduit and NEC table 34610 EMT Conduit.
