If it was a one gang box in the wall I would suggest a RACO #5403-0
weatherproof extension adapter with 3/4" hubs. I can't find a two gang
version in RACO, Steel city, or Pass & Seymour.

You could use a blank cover with a hole suitable for 3/4" however if it is a
metal cover, it must be grounded. Also the splices would have to be
accessible without the removal of the conduit, wires, fittings, etc. You
could accomplish this by using a nylon two gang blank cover with a gasket
and make your own hole in it using a hole saw or unibit and a slow drill.

You would come out of the cover with a 3/4" angle fitting and connect to a
short piece of 3/4" liquidtight flexible nonmetallic conduit. The other end
of the flex connects to your 3/4" pvc using a straight fitting and a pvc
female adapter. Using the flex allows the cover to be removed without
having to take anything apart. Just be sure to leave enough slack in your
conductors.

I am wiring a SPA and have a manufacturer supplied subpanel. The
contractor prewired my 230v connection to a flush, plastic, double gang
outlet box
with a plain metal cover on it. I need to run the wiring from the gang

box
to the subpanel using three quarter inch weatherproof plastic conduit. I
can't find an appropriate connection to attach the conduit to the face of
the gang box. I have some right angle and straight weatherproof fittings,
but I can't find an appropriate face plate to accept the fitting. I'm
thinking it would look like a plain faceplate with a three quarter inch
hole. What I have found is box covers that do not fit with half inch

holes
in them. Does what I am looking for exist? Am I thinking about the
connection correctly?
Thank you, Dan. Remove protection to reply.
