Blue Conduit?

No Marc it is from "misusing" electrical materials. I have used ENT for all sorts on nonelectrical stuff, including as a hose. I bought a crapload of it when "Builders Square" went out of business. (all you can get in or on a cart for $25 and I filled 2 carts of stuff).

If I was a code wonk I would simply ask you if the manufacturer required that you tape a listed concrete tight connector. I bet you tape wirenuts and receptacles too.

No, I don't tape wirenuts or receptacles. That is unnecessary. It has proven necessary to tape mechanical connections that are installed in a concrete pour to exclude the concrete.

Mark, we can't have mechanical connections in concrete that is not accessible can we?

So there would be no reason to tape the connections. It needs to be accessible.
Just throwing this at you here. ha. ha.

Do what gets you through the night, to be absolutely honest I taped up the stuff I used in my bedroom remodel but after playing with this stuff for 10 years I do think it is a pretty good product.
Snapped together fittings 3/4" weeped water but they didn't squirt on a 20-40 pump. We were mixing concrete 200' away and we didn't have enough hose to go that far.

I was talking about the mechanical connections of the raceway.
