A standard water line PVC pipe typically has a width (diameter) of either 1/2 inch, 3/4 inch, 1 inch, or 1.5 inches.
The PVC should go inside the copper pipe and the rubber sleeve should be properly tightened to create a watertight seal. There should be no gap between the two pipes. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions for the specific rubber sleeve and fittings you are using.

For five runs of #12 AWG conductors, a minimum of 1 inch PVC conduit would be required to meet the fill ratio requirements, providing adequate space for the conductors while allowing for future additions or modifications.
That's 3/4" pipe, not 3.4" prehaps it would deliver more pressure through the 1/2 inch pipe than 3/4 inch. 3/4" pipe will be less restrictive over the course of the run. Otherwise, no. 1/2" Copper Pipe will do fine, since it has a smoother bore, less restrictive, no lime and rust build-up. The only reason for you to use 3/4" pipe is if you want more volume. The pressure remains the same.
Yes, it can, this is fairly common. Just use a PVC reducer to connect.
The best ways to connect 1/2 inch PVC pipe for a plumbing project are using PVC solvent cement or PVC primer and cement. These methods create a strong and watertight bond between the pipes.
The best way to connect two sections of PVC pipe with a 2 inch PVC coupling is to first clean and dry the pipe ends, apply PVC primer and cement to the ends and inside the coupling, then quickly push the pipe ends into the coupling and hold them in place for a few seconds to allow the cement to bond.
The different types of 2-inch PVC fittings available for plumbing applications include couplings, elbows, tees, adapters, caps, and reducers. These fittings are used to connect and redirect PVC pipes in various configurations to create a plumbing system.
A fernco or rubber fitting. This made of rubber and had hose clamps on it. You should ask for assistance at a hardware or plumbing shop for a 2" Plastic X 2" Copper Fernco or rubber coupling.
You can put up to a 2 inch pipe into a 4 inch. If you are putting 4 inch to 4 inch, either take out a section of the cast and put the PVC in or cut out a section and connect the PVC to the cast with rubber sleeves meant for this. You can use a saddle clamp for the 2 inch. It is a half round piece of PVC with a 2 inch connection in it. It is held on with two U bolts that go around the cast pipe. Put it where you need it and mark the 2 inch hole on the cast. Drill a series of 1/8 inch holes around this circle. when you get them all drilled, you can break out the plug. Try to keep it from falling into the cast pipe. Put the saddle clamp on and connect the PVC pipe as needed. Seal the saddle clamp to the cast pipe with plumbers putty.
The standard PVC conduit dimensions used in electrical installations are typically 1/2 inch, 3/4 inch, 1 inch, 1 1/4 inch, 1 1/2 inch, 2 inch, 2 1/2 inch, 3 inch, 3 1/2 inch, 4 inch, and larger. These sizes refer to the diameter of the conduit.
The maximum pressure rating for a 2 inch schedule 80 PVC pipe is typically around 400 psi.
The maximum pressure rating for a 2 inch schedule 80 PVC pipe is typically around 400 psi.
The outside diameter of a 1/2 inch PVC pipe is approximately 0.840 inches.
The outer diameter of 1/2 inch PVC pipe is approximately 0.84 inches.
