Is that staples? I'm not a big staple fan
I'm just glad I found it in the wall. It was a mess getting it all torn out. The HO helped. He was there the whole time, feeling bad because of what he had done.
I know that the house is full of his and the previous HO's handywork. Work is slow but I really didn't want to do anything else there.
I didn't say or does the NEC say that you are limited to staples.
Just support and secure the cable at intervals not exceeding 4 1/2'
and within 12" of every outlet box,junction box,cabinet, or fitting.
A staple is at least better than nothing at all. I'm not trying to bust your
chops for not supporting those cables, I was just making light
of a more serious problem that you repaired.Great job, you probably
saved that mans home from a fire.This is a CODE forum what else did
you expect from us?
