Can you pull 2*6 AWG through 3/4" conduit?
Need to pull a pair of AWG 6 cables from solar through the roof. When I look at some photos here, it looks like people are able to pull 2* AWG 4 through 3/4 conduit connectors. I don't have cables yet...

Conductor diamater in inches gauge 6 0.162
Multiply that by two 0.324
You have 0.75 inches
I'd say it is possible if the insulation is not too thick and there are no major bends in the conduit.
HOWEVER: This is for SOLID wire.. Stranded wire has a larger diamater for any given gauge.
