Moving Violations Video No. 301: A Multitude of Problems

Dec. 21, 2023

Russ looks at two installations with several problems.

In this episode, Russ looks at two installations with several problems. First, there is a box that is not weatherproof and violates Sec. 314.15. Also, there are no clips on the EMT or rigid PVC conduit, which violates Sec. 358.30 and Sec. 352.30. Finally, the run of conduit lacks any expansion fitting, which is another issue that needs to be addressed to make this installation Code compliant.
