Hello all,
I've been using the forum for a while now, but have not had the need until today to ask a question. We're using intrinsically safe valves on a piece of equipment and my concern is the wiring. The valve comes with an amp connector with two loose conductors, see attached picture. The picture shows two versions of the valve one with a molded connector and one with the amp connector. It also shows the two loose conductors. Is this acceptable per NEC to have IS conductors outside of conduit or an enclosure? We plan to run these conductors a short distance (8" or so) to a junction box. Thanks in advance for your help.
