i hate to be a forum hog but i have a question that has come up and a few various qualified opinions on the subject would help solve the question.
here is the situation...
given a 3/4 inch run of rigid steel conduit with a 2" tee cut in. re's are used to bush the tee down to 3/4. the only support is a piece of unistrut a foot apart on either side of the tee for this example.. the rest of the run is supported correctly.
the issue is the support of the fitting...i see a code violation here because you would be using a 3/4 inch conduit to support the 2 inch tee...
given that the fitting should contain devices or fixtures you are bound by the same exception as in 370-23 (e)
i realize this has been done for a long time but.....i beleive it was changed in 1996 to eliminate this problem...
thank you for your response
