Connect 25mm Adaptaflex to Galv Conduit

[RDB85]

I’m running a some Adaptaflex 25mm underground and I’m just wondering where the top of the Adaptaflex meets the Pavement how could I join that on to some 25mm Galv Conduit?

What adaptaflex fittings do you have - male or female?

I’ve a set of these:

Pardon our interruption...

I’m also not sure if they are okay to connect to a Genwiss box.

They'd connect to 25mm galv conduit in the same way as any other 25mm male thread.

What problems do you envisage using them with an adaptable box?

I just wasn’t sure if I could use them with the 25mm Galv conduit if I add a coupler on the end.

Part number isn't current and judging by the packaging dates from prior to ABB ownership. Most adaptaflex fittings seem to have suitable IP rating for outdoor use (and I note these have a rubber seal), but erring on the side of caution you could rely on the principle that water doesn't flow uphill and gland to bottom of your adaptable box.

25mm coupler will thread onto them or you could use a flange coupler (minus lead seal) to provide a better seal. Chances are moisture is going to get into the underground section through time, but I'd be more concerned about mechanical damage than moisture pentrating a cable sheath.

25mm through box, coupler or any other method of joining 25mm galv. What is the plan running this stuff underground? It won’t provide any protection

It’s to house some NYY cable. It’s also easier to use than conduit. It’s also metal lined.
