Purpose: To prevent insulation damage and ensure heat dissipation.

Formula:
Conduit Area (40%) ≥ Sum of (Conductor Cross-sectional areas) Purpose: To prevent insulation damage and ensure heat
Example: 3 #6 AWG THHN (Area = 0.0507 sq. in each). Total = 0.1521 sq. in. Create a quick-reference table in your PDF: "For
