show us some pics--- running flexible conduit through drywall

[gumbudah]

I've got a few locations where I want to run either flexible metalic conduit or liquid tight fexible non metalic conduit behind then through drywall, but would like to find a good way to finish the penetration through the drywall. Please post a pic if you've got a good solution or have done it in a nice clean fashion.

Why are you running flex in a wall?

running flex through the wall is going to look like ****. put a box in the wall then put a cover with a KO in it and use a liquidtite 'whip' to the machine. Using a 90deg fitting to attach to the box makes it cleaner looking and the cover doesnt flex from the leverage of a straight fitting and conduit. Metallic liquidtite is better as it is more flexible and will hang nicely. The plastic stuff has a mind of its own.

My thought is to eliminate the extra box with knockout. Just need a slick way to make it pertyonce i do.

No real way to make it "perty", just will be a cruddy looking install, IMO.

Here you go- generator feed through wall from this box, pipe ****** (with plastic bushings each end) to box on outside for whip from genset. Pretty much what has been suggested above.

cover with a knockout in it + 90deg liquidtite fitting pointed down is cleaner than an extra box.

another cleaner option is instead of a box or normal box extender, use an outdoor extension ring with threaded holes in it. Done that in commercial kitchens a few times for a whip to an appliance.
