[RE-wrenches] myers hub

[Nick Vida]

hey August,

Yes we are saying the same thing, i was talking about a bonding bushing. 
The reason I said bonding screw is because the myer hub i use in that scenario
only has a screw on it not a lug. The point was to mention that you need
to bond your conduits together so there is no interruption from the pvc box.


Drake,

look ask about the other options for myers hubs at your supply house,
because you can buy them with a bonding screw on the lock nut side.

Hi Nick,



Don't you need to install a bonding bushing with an equipment jumper to bond
all conduits together regardless of whether you're using a Meyers hub or not
in a non-metallic enclosure? I might be misunderstanding you, but I don't
see how a bonding screw will do any good in a non-metallic enclosure.

yes you need a myers hub for the same above the bottom 1/3 and into the top
for your non-metalic enclousure. some will use a water tight connector
(raintight with a gasket ring). Either way you need a bonding bushing on
your connector or a myers hub with the bonding screw on the inside locknut
to bond together all the conduits coming into the enclosure.
i would suggest a hole saw definitely if you are working with fiberglass
combiner box and also for a pvc box because a unibit makes a cloud you dont
want around you in fiberglass and makes a beveled hole in a pvc box that can
make a seal difficult if your not careful.
