I'm reviving this thread in the hope to learn something. If you were the AHJ:

would schedule 40 PVC between the bottom of the trench and the LB on the wall of a home be "subject to physical damage"?


What about if it is shielded at ground level to protect it from power lawn care equipment.

How about when adjacent to a residential driveway.

I' not being a gadfly here but rather trying to get a sense of were others would come out on this issue. I ask because if everything from one and one half under to eight feet over ground level needs to be schedule 80 I will have to size the runs based on the interior diameter of schedule 80 unless I install a ground box to change conduit types.
