Well, I agree to some extent.

Maybe I came off a little cocky there.

However, I only disagree on your black and white stance. It's not so.

I think the nec gives a general definition. But the inspector really can expand or contract this. There is so many variables here and that is what inspectors are for. What if they only open the garage door two times a year or it only rains one week out of the year? Or what if you mount the disco 100 feet in from the garage door edge and the garage also has a heater in it? Do you still apply your hard and fast rules?

It is your job to test the humidity of the air- give me a break!

If you said , You need anitshort bushing on mc cable,. I'd say , no, just on ac cable, that is "black and white"

I think it is up to interpretation. But hey, I could be wrong.- thanks for your responses.
