NM Cable

Please be advised the 2009 National Electric Code does not allow NM (romex)cable to run in damp or wet locations, please read the following text from NEC. This also means NM cable cannot be in conduit, it is considered a wet location per 300.9. NM cable is not allowed to be stripped down and the outer sheating removed and placed in conduit because the wire has no markings for example THHW THWN Etc. as set forth in 310.8.(c)
