Conduit Body Types

Conduit bodies are identified by letters that represent the direction change in the cable path (usually) and the location of the cover. For "L?" conduit bodies, the conduit path is making a 90-degree turn, considering the conduit is vertical, then turning away from you. If the cover is facing you, then that is the B in LB. If the cover is on the right side, then that is the R in LR.
