1. 320.23 (330.23, 334.23)

2. Relocate text

3. Relocate all the text in 320.23(A) to 300.4. and between "where" and "run" the terms type AC, MC, and NM... Change 320.23, 330.23, and 334.23 to this new section location.

4. I just feel this requirement is in poor location as currently placed. Since the rule applies to more than one cable type, the requirement should be placed in the "general" requirement Article and then each cable method that must comply with that section can reference the general rule.

Re: 320.23 Move

Problem: There are types of cables that do not have to comply with these requirements. Suddenly they would have to, with insufficient substantiation.

The rule's just not quite general enough. :)

But that's not the way it works - everything must comply with 300.4. The specific articles don't need to reference 300.4 for 300.4 to be enforceable. ;)

The section will specify what cable sections apply so this wouldn't be an issue. For example (B) only applies to NM and ENT. They could add a new letter like (G).
