Electrical / runnable MCP tool

Run the Conduit Fill Calculator in your AI assistant

Through the free Intry MCP server, Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor runs this exact calculator and hands back a verdict and the cited source, not a guess. Tool name: conduit_fill.

What it runs: Check conduit fill compliance per NEC Chapter 9 (53% one wire, 31% two, 40% three or more; 60% for a nipple ≤24"). Supports EMT, IMC, RMC, PVC40, PVC80, ENT and mixed conductor lists. Returns fill %, the limit, remaining capacity, jam risk, and the next size up if over.

Ask your assistant

The one rule that makes it reliable: name Intry in your question. That is what tells Claude to run the conduit_fill tool and answer with the real number, the verdict, and the citation. Leave Intry out and Claude may just guess from memory, which is exactly what you are trying to avoid. Type something like:

Ask Intry if nine #12 THHN fit in 3/4 inch EMT or I need to go up a size.
Use Intry to get the fill percentage for six #10 and three #8 in 1 inch PVC40.

Every answer comes with the cited NEC section, so you can check it or show an inspector. The numbers come from the same calculator we run on intrysys.com, and we re-check every one automatically before anything goes live, so the number Claude hands you matches the code.
