Conduit factors

[Litttle Shonet]

Good afternoon Gentlemen.

I'm in the process of rewiring my garage so that I can join one of those fantastic schemes for my Part P.

Question is this. looking at the OSG about conduit factors (Table 5D), it says about bends. Is this just bends in the actual conduit or does this include such things as 'elbows' and 'Tees'? The reson I'm asking is for example, it gives factors for 1metre runs with 4 bends, but none for 10 metre runs with 4 bends!!!

Many thanks in anticipation

A 10 metre run with 4 bends shouldn't really be an issue.

I know I'm "Old school" but I'd never put 4 bends in without a box of some sort Shonet , in fact 2 R/angles is enough for pulling cables round , 3 at a push .

Just use thru boxes instead of couplers..
