9-10, but the conduit may not exceed a certain length, or a certain voltage in order for you to "legally" do it. Many applications allow for conduit fill ratio's that exceed the standards of the NEC ( National Electrical Code) and most of them are short (less than 24") "chases" between control devices mounted in listed Junction boxes for that purpose. It is not advisable to fill a conduit more than the NEC allows for purposes of heat dissipation.

What percent of copper is a 1O THHN Electrical Wire?
I would need more detailon your question but what i can tell you is 100' of #10 THHN eire is 8320grams with insulation and 7110 grams as bear copper wire. Now what i am trying to figure out is if that copper wire is 100% copper or not?
What is type THW wire?
Thw...thermoplastic heat resistant wire building wire type. In most applications replaced by type thhn which has a smaller od and
What is the temperature rating of THHN WIRE?
THHN wire is moisture resistant thermoplastic allowed for use in dry and wet locations. Maximum temperature is 60 C or 140 F. Being thermoplastic it should not be handled below 0 C as cracking of the insulation could easily occur.
What is the weight of 500 mcm thhn wire per foot?
2.2 lbs per ft
Can you bury thhn wire?
The conductor can be pulled into conduit and then buried but it is not certified for direct earth burial.
Will number 8 gas rated wire feed a 60 amp garage sub panel installed in USA?
Not sure what you mean by "gas" rated wire. If you mean "gasoline resistant" you probably have type THHN wire insulation. Size #8 THHN is not suitable for a 60 amp application anywhere.
What is the table 310.16 of the NEC?
It's a table that shows the ampacity ratings for the particular wire size and insulation you are using. Example: #12 THHN CU is rated @ 30amps under the 90 degree column. (#12)is the wire size, (THHN)is the type of insulation on the wire (CU)is copper. You shouldn't be using the chart unless you're a qualified electrician simply because there are many sub rules and exceptions.
What material is used for insulation on the outside of connecting wires?
Cross link polyvinyl chloride RW90 (PVC) and THHN are two common types of insulation THHN wire stands for thermoplastic high heat resistant nylon coated wire. THWN stands for thermoplastic heat- and moisture resistant nylon coated wire.
