QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question
  • About 12/2 Romex wire

    Type 12/2 Romex wire from Nassau Electrical is an NM-B cable. Manufactured as 2, 3 or 4 conductor cable. It has annealed copper conductors. It also has a PVC insulation and nylon jacket. The cable is used for exposed and concealed work in dry areas of temperatures below 90 0 C. The power rating is 600 volts.

  • Nm B wire definition

    This wire has a PVC jacket rather than a metallic clad. It is an indoor wire that supplies power from an electrical box to appliances, lights and outlets. Since the PVC jacket is not prepared for tear and wear, the cable is not used for outdoor electrical wiring.

  • What is NM-B?

    NM-B stands for non-metallic sheathed cable. It is a type of Romex cable that is often used for exposed and concealed operations in dry areas with temperatures that do not exceed 90 0 C. It is used for residential wiring branch circuits. It may be run through air voids of masonry blocks or tile walls that are not subject to dampness.

  • Is Romex legal in Illinois?

    If you are thinking of using Romex in Illinois, then you better be careful where exactly. This is because some Romex cables are not allowed in Illinois; except in few areas of Will County. The area is highly influenced by the Chicago codes. In Chicago, everything is expected to be in conduit. They deem Romex cables unsafe.

  • Romex vs conduit?

    Almost 90% of residential houses in the US are wired using Romex wires. This is because they are convenient and easy to install. However, a conduit is needed for all commercial and residential wiring in some places of the country. This makes it more expensive for home wiring and for the ordinary home owner it is more difficult.

  • What’s Romex wiring code?

    The jacketing is color-coded for easy identification as follows;

    • White- 14 AWG • Yellow- 12 AWG • Orange- 10 AWG • Black- 8 AWG • Black- 6 AWG

  • What is Romex Cable?

    Romex cable is a cable that has conductor wires bundled together in a plastic sheath. ‘Non- metallic’ is the term often used to describe these kinds of cables. This differentiates them from other ordinary types of service wires.

  • What’s Romex in conduit?

    There is a widespread misconception that Romex cannot be run through conduits. The truth is that it can. Actually the NEC requires it to be run in conduit when there is need for protection from physical damage. It however, depends on the location of the conduit. Romex cable is not allowed in underground or wet places.
