Guys, I could go on about the unfairness of this all night, but I don't want to hijack the thread. Anyone interested in the sort of nonsense we have in Britain now can find plenty of examples here: http://www.bwmaonline.com/

If that bean counter goes in the hood with his hammer, a homey'll go postal on him with a sawed-off.
Aren't local lingos great?

All I know is that ordering my 1.905cm (.75in X 2.54 imperial aka inch/pd to metric conversion factor) EMT (Which is 3/4" but 21mm Metric Designator per 2002 NEC Annex C?) is really going to screw with my material orders. Also, how many #10 AWG (American Wire Gauge) conductors will fit into a 3/4", I mean 1.905cm, or is it 21mm, conduit? Man, my head hurts now.

A liter is a quart plus a martini

That has got to be the luckiest guess in my entire life. I'll be right back, I'm gonna go play WIN FOR LIFE! And no, Alan, I did not install that "thing." I've never even seen something like that before. Is that an old-school type hand hole?
27, I can't believe that!

I am bumping this one as I was reminded of it by another post.
This small box had 27 solids 10 AWGs along with a fixture mounted on it.
The interesting thing is they ran two 1" PVCs to the box but the hubs are 3/4".
They put in 3/4" MAs than glued a 1" couping on the outside of the MA.
You ever try to get Fourteen 10 AWG solids through a 3/4" PVC?
It ain't easy.
