hi,
there are NO requirements to GROUND a FITTING that has splices..you may be required to ground a box but a fitting is NOT a box..

Dave,
The L.B. is marked with the volume. However, I used a 6X6X6 CARLON PVC J-BOX instead of the fitting for this particular job. There was no real need to use the L.B. since it was so easy to use a J-box..this is good to know for those times when there is really no other option. The J.B. was about $10.00 and it gave me plenty of room to work.

I also used aluminum instead of copper for my transition from Romex to Outside wiring method..XLPE in PVC conduit. The same stuff I use for UG services.

Thanks for the reply.

-regards

Mustang
