Are those for an outdoor receptacle? Oh ya that black cable I see there too I take it thats a co-ax? Just wondering..


Believe it or not, there's a pantry behind that curtain, which sits under the front porch, read: concrete slab. (The lower joists are in the living room, the higher ones are the walkway to the front door.) I have no clue why they did it, or how they did it, but that house is a 1980s modular so who knows. The 2 NMs go to a pullchain light, one from the panel and one that goes off to feed the 3way chain and rest of lighting in that area of the house. (Including that dishwasher.)

10-4 on the coax BTW, and thanks for the explanation on the NM connectors.

Is there anyone on board who knows how to fly a plane?
