Thanks for the reply. It seems over the top to me to mount a full junction box just to have those wires enter the wall. Is this the kind of elbow you mean? https://www.homedepot.com/p/Halex-1-2-in-EMT-Rigid-Pull-Elbow-94505/203776539
Yep, that's the kind. Take the device to the store so you can enssure the threads are a match and then use the silver nut to position the elbow 90° to the wall. Just make sure to get the conduit and fittings you'll need to get it through the wall and into the distribution panel as well. No point in doing it halfway.
