I’ve ordered some 25mm Adaptaflex but I’m struggling to find which connections I would need to go into 308/607 Wiska Boxes.

Tried pulling some 2.5mm T&E through 10m of 20mm flexi conduit the other day with a draw tape, although I did succeed it was a bit of a wrestle.

Thanks in advance.

Hello I have an existing run of rigid metal conduit outside of my house that feeds several outdoor receptacles. There is no separate ground wire inside the rigid metal conduit. Is there a way that I can use liquid tight to run to a new extension receptacle? What I am particularly concerned about...

Hi. Is there some kind of cable protector that I can pop on the end of length of 20mm conduit to stop the cable chaffing? Just running cable into vertical drops in a garage.
