Click to expand... No, a handy box can't be used for a pendant box because a handy box does not have a hub. Take a look at 314.23(H)(1). Second can the same cord have a strainrelief type hanger secured to conduit as the support? Click to expand... Conduit can't be used to support cables and other conduits unless it is identified for the purpose. Take a look at 300.11(B) Chris
