What is the minimum distance allowed between raceway entries in a pull box for angle pulls?

The minimum distance allowed between raceway entries in a pull box for angle pulls is based on standards set to ensure proper installation and maintenance of electrical systems. Specifically, 6 times the largest trade size raceway is stipulated to allow enough room for pulling cables without damaging them or compromising the integrity of the installation.

This distance provides equitable space for the cables to bend and ensures that there are no sharp angles that could lead to increased stress on the wiring. It also helps to minimize the risk of interference and allows for future maintenance or adjustments to the installed systems without excessive difficulty. Adhering to this guideline ensures compliance with electrical codes and promotes safety and efficiency in electrical installations.
