6-3 ufb connector

[23 CHIEF]

I am running 6-3 ufb from home to garage for subpanel. What connector is correct for when it enters the panel

I assume you're asking about where the UF passes through the knock-out. You use a NM clamp.

 

[23 CHIEF]

Yeah that's the clamp I was thinking what size would I need

 

[Cmreschke]

Probably 3/4. No bigger than 1", but probably 3/4".

6-3 w/grd UF cable is a flat one, and is pretty wide. Be very careful when you tighten the NM clamp on it as is can easily pinch the outer conductors while you are looking to get the middle of the cable tight. May need the 1" just because its so wide.

Do you need a plastic bushing on the inside of the box using a nm clamp?

 

[alfredeneuman]

No, you don't

 

[23 CHIEF]

The cable is like 1 1/8 wide it will fit in a 3/4 conector

A knockout hole for 3/4" conduit is 1-1/8".
How do you figure to use a 3/4 connector?

 

[23 CHIEF]

Sorry I was asking if it would fit in the connector

 

[alfredeneuman]

No, you'll need at least a 1" connector
