I'm no electrical expert, but one thing I know is pulling UF cable through conduit is a BITCH


Makes sense. I think UF is designed primarily for direct bury. If you do conduit, you would want to use a standard wet rated conductor like XHHW-2 or THWN-2.

The OP said he'd be running UF underground, but then running it up his walls in conduit, which I was trying to warn him wouldn't be very easy.
