I may be helping another EC install new panels in some condos. Need to run the feeders to each unit for a 100a panel. The runs will be 100-180'. No good strait shots and probibly a number of obstructions. We may need to install some pull boxes because of all the bends.

I would like to use 1 1/4 EMT with 3 #2 or #3's (depending on length) because it will be reasonable to pull by hand. The other EC is thinking 1" EMT with 3 #3's because it is quicker to bend and would save maybe $1500 in material.

The inspecter already said 3 #3's is fine in 1" and is not worried about VD because of little load in each unit.

I never tried to pull 3 #3 in a 1" very far by hand but I wounder if it is possable with out a tugger.
