Why do you need to conduit the stuff at all?

Mechanical protection is not needed, the concrete will be prettty good
for that already. A plastic pipe sure wont add any strength.
Why is the cable ok to clip to the wall, yet when buried in concrete
you want conduit?

Some issues with capacitance to ground, and some with chemical action.

I'd use preloaded flexible round trunking, or even a bit of flexible
heating pipe that is designed for UFH.
