Hi Guys
I have never seen loomex(NMD) surface mounted in a house(without a raceway), but according to the code unless it is exposed to mechanical damage or closer then 1.5 Metres from the floor it is allowed (CEC 12-518). I had a discussion with an individual and he is saying there is no problem with this if he wanted to do it. This leaves allot of room for bad judgement. I have never seen a house wired in this matter and it obviously would not look good but can you prove to me that it can not be done. If he decided to surface mount a cable from a switch to a light in the ceiling and not use a raceway could he get away with it
Thanks
Greg
