Running wire for my Generator
I have a box to hook up my generator to my house. Since my panel is in my home and not in the garage,when I use it I have to feed the wire out a window. Not too quiet and a pita.
I am planning to put a plug on the exterior and wire it to the box inside. I will be using 10/3 with ground. The question is,since I will be running it inside the walls,would it be wise to run the iwre in flex conduit for protection?? |
Apparently my response has to be more than 10 letters long.
Answer to your question: Yes. |
No - Wire inside the walls does not need to be in conduit. On the surface of the wall outside its a good idea.

It is perfectly acceptable to run MC cable inside a wall.
The question was "would it be wise". The added protection of MC sheilding is always better than romex but, not necessary and not against code. |
