1. A conduit body comprising:
a sidewall defining an internal chamber and at least two ports providing access to the internal chamber; and
a cover connectable to the sidewall to enclose the internal chamber, wherein the sidewall defines:
a first surface section adjacent one of the at least two ports;
a second surface section adjacent another of the at least two ports with the first surface section and the second surface section are arranged on different planes spaced apart by a distance d; and
a radiused transition section having a radius r connecting the first surface section and the second surface section, wherein the first surface section is spaced apart from the second surface section by the distance d to increase a volume of the internal chamber, and
the distance d, the increase in volume of the internal chamber, and the radius r of the radiused transition section are configured for reducing frictional drag of a cable pulled through the internal chamber,
wherein the cover is located on a side of the conduit body parallel to a plane extending through the at least two ports with at least one of the at least two ports being arranged at approximately 90° relative to another one of the at least two ports.
