I have a situation that has come up this week. We are wiring a new house, which has an elevator in it.
The entire house is wired with NM-B cable, including the circuits feeding the elevator disconnect switches. The wiring method from those disconnects to the elevator equipment itself is installed in conduit, including greenfield.
Now the elevator outfit is telling me that I need to change my wiring method from the main panel from NM cable to conduit for the equipment circuits.
I can't find anything in the NEC that supports this claim. The NEC does not seem to have any preference for the wiring methods used feeding the required disconnects.
Is there something I have missed?
I have requested a Code section source for their assertion ....
