Is the advantage of straight runs just a smoother line run inside?
We're only looking at a 76 foot silo.

I like that Menards carries a lot of made-in-USA stuff. But for
manly stuff, maybe Farm&Fleet? We have Rural King but that might
be an Illinois thing. Serious electrical parts I head to
Graybar. The flexible conduit at big box stores tends to be
crap. Also, I prefer to do the straight runs with rigid or IMC
and just use flexible for the part that has to be … flexible.
Like getting up onto the platform at some grain legs.

Home Depot is in Piqua. There are no cute ones in Piqua.

Awesome, thank you sir.
Couldn't find anything at Lowe's that would match up
or anything so I have to assume this isn't the
liquidtite brand.

If you use liquidtite and use the proper
connectors, you don’t need to put in a drip loop
or 180 to keep the water out. Any bend you make
in that stuff makes it harder to pull the wires
through. But if you can pull the wires and you
don’t have connectors then what you are
describing is just fine.

This is our first time ever using conduit. Lowe's
didn't have any goose necks or anything so I'm
thinking I'll run the conduit up (so the opening
is facing earth) and then do a 180* down the silo
and into the shack/our NEMA box. Is this what
everyone else does or is there an alternative?
