ECN Forum Forums Photo Discussion Forums Photos for General Discussion How Many Conductors Can Fit?

I went on a service call at a Hotel they said 90% of the outside lights where out.

I found tripped breakers and started looking for faults, this turned out to be tough, many boxes in the ground had been buried.

Here is one I found under 10" of bark mulch.





It measures 2.5" x 2.5" x 4.25".

How many 10 AWG conductors can we put in here?

Anyone want guess how many 10 AWG conductors where in this box?

Guess high.
