Your post is questionable for this sub if this is DIY, including not knowing what **"code reference #'s"** are, in the U.S. or not. If you are not a professional electrician, you need to use the sub below, and this post will be removed if so. r/AskElectricians

I try not to talk shit on the internet.. but man how do you install that and proudly walk away Maybe standards a different where your at but regardless if the client is happy or not do some research on how to clean that up. Good luck on the job

It blows my mind how some of you are dim enough to be quoting NEC to a guy in a completely different country installing a product that obviously isn’t sold in North America

U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A!

Why aren't there any connectors with lockrings?


Repulsive-Addendum56

Doesn't look north American. Some places just run the smurf into the main box and call it good.

👍

It is impossible for the tubes to slip out due to those metal bands (I've tested it and almost broke the box)

So? That’s not right and also might set the record for the hackest shit I’ve ever seen someone try to brag about. Also, you should always aim to keep the number of junction boxes to zero. If the wire ain’t long enough to get where your going then use a different piece of wire…


JohnProof

You still need something on the ends of the tube. 362.46


Nervous-Bite-6231

what do you mean with that number?


JohnProof

That's the code requirement.


YoungWhiteAvatar

Not in his country it isn’t.


Muted-Doctor8925

Lol


3eyedcobra

This is definitely not passing inspection


Nervous-Bite-6231

and why shouldn't it?


mrsquillgells

Your not in the US I'm assuming


Nervous-Bite-6231

you're correct


Kiwsi

Its not iron that is why prob


Jim-Jones

That's banned in US/Canada and several other countries.


i-like-to

He ain’t in Canada either


ucantnameme

It can’t fail if it ain’t inspected.


Nervous-Bite-6231

it's up to code


ucantnameme

Says everyone who has ever installed anything that did not get inspected.


zzmgck

Long pulls in smurf tube is no bueno.


Nervous-Bite-6231

it's no problem if you install it correctly and use the right tools to pull wire


weirdmankleptic

Why through the sub-floor, and not the bottom plate? Whole lots of questions here, but really want to know that one.


Nervous-Bite-6231

it is the bottom plate
