Thanks for answers so far BUT: I believe the intent of the NEC is to allow NMC in the Interior of a Single Family Building but why is it in the Pool Motor section and not for ALL Pool associated equipment? Or does it mean for MOTORS that are in the interior since it is only in the Motor Section?? And SOARS says “Note that this wiring method does not apply to the supply of spas and hot tubs that are located outdoors.” And the IAEI 1-&-2 Family book says: “….does not apply to branch circuits for spas and hot tubs. The electrical equipment that service spas and hot tubs commonly includes panelboards, control panels, motors and heaters.”
Just some thoughts I get aimed at me. Any help will be appreciated.
