hi all.
sorry i come up with all kinds of strange questions.
i was asked to replace a mains panel that flashed due to improper "handyman" work. of course i will pull all new home-runs where the insulation is burnt. however, i was wondering is there anything that states that emt with dark black carbon around it from the flash must also be replaced?
as long as the butt of the conduit where it makes contact with the collar is cleaned is this ok?
the integrity of the conduit is fine. it is just covered with carbon near the box. pulling new conduit would be a pain. since there are 19 runs and most over 12 feet before they reach a j box or collar that is hidden.
thank you.
