I was just at both big box stores to get wiring to install two security lights on my pole barn. It's been a while since I bought any wire, prices have shot out of sight.
I'm zoned commercial so everything below the ceiling is supposed to be in conduit - the electrician who hooked up the meter and supply box managed to get that variance.
Since THNN single strand would cost me $1.03 a foot to run, I plan to run 'romex' in the conduit. Is there a reason I shouldn't do this?
What I found surprising was that 14/2 outdoor was about one third cheaper than 14/2 indoor: .57 a foot vs .81 a foot.
Other than the joy of stripping is there any other reason I shouldn't use outdoor wiring?
Thanks!
