PVC Conduit Question

RDB85

Trainee
I’m looking to buy some PVC Conduit for some security lights rather than clip the cable. We don’t use it in work. But I know I need 20mm conduit but would I be okay using 20mm inspection elbows? I assume they just fit inside?
 
Cheap LED sticky tape stuck to the underside of my pipe from #54.... bathe the front of the house in blue for Thursdays clapping for nhs

It’s 3 colour, RBG.... can fade or jump between the colours, or change in time to music.... but the mic and controller are inside. I’d need a speaker inside and out to get the effect
can it make the tea though?
 
Trampolines, hot tubs and accent lighting is a sure way to devalue the neighbourhood.
No trampoline or hot tub. My back garden is on a slope, so water would spill out, or the kids would bounce out onto the main road.

yes. I wasn’t keen on running those lights out.... but it’s for the kids.
They won’t last long... not entirely IP rated for a start.
 
Thanks I’ve ordered some 20mm conduit. It’s to run some 10mm twin and earth from the CCU to the garage CCU as the guy who converted the garage into a room just left the old 1.5mm SWA cable in. But my uncle who is a spark of 50 years said that’s no good. So the SWA is coming out and the T&E going in it’s place. We’ve done the cable calcs so 10mm is fine. The reason we couldn’t fit SWA is the room where the CCU is has been fully refurbished and decorated. We managed to fit the T&E before the was put in.

Now would I need to buy some draw tape or is there another method for the bends? As the T&E goes down the conduit fine as it’s less than a metre between the house and garage.

Thanks
