Silver,

As far as I know Romex is accepted in all of Suffolk. Nassau may have some pockets where it is not. I am not familiar with all those areas' rules and regs.

Sparky,

I'm not totally following you there but can you use a 4 x 4 (side strap) or a 2 Gang/4 x 4 (nail-on) pvc with a mud ring?

Bill

Outside they spec for pvc coated with 10awg thhn for 15 amp lighting circuits.

I've ran PVC coated Rigid in aluminum diecasting plants, has to be replaced about every 12 months or so too.

I've also heard that some NYC sparkys are looking for urine-proof fixtures... No offense to the big apple, I'm being serious here.

By "fixtures" I mean devices, fixtures, conduit, etc. anything exposed.

The tale goes that people will steal anything, and when they steal the toilets and urinals, the people will just go anywhere...

I've always thought NYC had a funny smell...

I mean no offense, just to give perspective, we still leave the keys in the vehicles around here in case someone needs to move it our of their way! And the country has its share of funny smells...(hogs, cattle, sheep, turkeys, etc.)
