Does anybody know of a kit that I can use to seal off the cable? Every parts house I called today did not have a clue what i was talking about.
If an AHJ brings it up, I typically ask the AHJ what method they "approve" for sealing the cable ends, since the ball is in their court on this one. Typically ends up with silicone sealant.
501.15(D)(2) exception:
Exception: Multiconductor cables with a gas/vaportight
continuous sheath capable of transmitting gases or vapors
through the cable core shall be permitted to be considered
as a single conductor by sealing the cable in the conduit
within 450 mm (18 in.) of the enclosure
and the cable end
within the enclosure by an approved means to minimize the
entrance of gases or vapors and prevent the propagation of
flame into the cable core, or by other approved methods.
For shielded cables and twisted pair cables, it shall not be
required to remove the shielding material or separate the
twisted pair.
