Subject: pulling elect. wire through conduit



Scottville, 49454 Northwest Michigan
I've got to go to a larger wire size in some 1 inch conduit. I currently have 3 number 6 wires in this conduit. One is being used for the ground. It's about 400 feet in length. I need to replace 2 of the 3 wires with number 2 wire. It's probably going to be a bit of a hard pull. Would you pull all three existing wires out and start over. Or would you leave one of the wires in and pull the two new number 2's in as you pull the number 6's out. I had a electric motor repair man suggest the later. what do you guys think?



thanks, gordon
