Conduit Fill Calc Latest

This document contains a conduit fill calculator that allows a user to enter cable information including outer diameter and quantity to calculate the total fill area for up to 10 cables. It then provides tables with trade size, inner diameter, area, and permissible fill area for various types of conduit to calculate the percentage fill. The summary entered cables with a total fill area of 0.29 square inches and found the percentage fill for a 1" rigid PVC conduit to be 34.79%, within the permissible limits.
