Hello Wrenches,

With pole mount systems, It looks cleaner and is safer to run the PVC conduit down the pole into the concrete, and use a 90 degree elbow to come out through the side of the anchor underground. This way, the pipe is protected from mechanical damage, and there is nothing to trip over when adjusting the array for seasonal tilt.

I was told that some building departments will not allow this. Has anyone had a problem with using this method, either technical or legal? How do you like to route your conduits?

Thank you,

Drake
