Question:
Greetings Code Question of the Day,
Are PVC 2” base adapters permitted to be used outside? And is it permissible to use NM cable in PVC outside?
Kevin Wind
A
Answer:
Hello Kevin,
Thanks for the question. PVC adaptors are suitable for use outside. See Section 352.10, except where prohibited in locations identified by Section 352.12. For the second question, NM cable is permitted to be used in dry locations. The inside of a conduit installed in a wet location is also a wet location. See Sections 300.5 and 300.9.
