Warren1 how do you strap an LB?

I actually screwed an LB once, but I wasn't comfortable about it.
I'm thinking doing so would violate 110.3(B)

My intention was to say that the conduit on each side of the LB, or enclosure would need to be strapped within three feet.
Guess I need to re-read my post to see if it make any sense, HUH.

never mind

Don — in your 8/10 posting about need for independent {other-than-raceway} support in the case of using reducing bushings, wouldn’t drilling bolt holes in most {all?} cases constitute modification of the conduit body? I am not aware of conduit bodies furnished with lugs or other mounting means.

Can you or another suggest possible resolution to this? [I understand and do not object to the requirement for additional support.] Thank you for your time. —bjarn

I take it to mean, like Warren pointed out, that the conduit itself must be supported within 3' of the condulet if the condulet is over-sized with reducers connecting the conduit.

Make sense?
