Mini-Split Cable

[Jimmy7]

I need to wire a mini-split in a single family house. Between the inside and the outside unit the hvac contractor already ran ducktstrip wire. Rather than just running the cable exposed from where it exits the house to the outdoor unit I didn’t know If I should sleeve it in non-metallic liquid tight. If I do sleeve it, what is the best way transition to non-metallic liquid tight where it leaves the house, use a nonmetallic bell box? If so, what can I use on the back of the bell box for a fitting? Do they make a nonmetallic chase nipple?

Looks like it is listed as type UF-B cable though it looks like it is a little different product than most UF cable.

You can sleeve it for physical protection if necessary or even just to make it look neater.

How would you transfer over to liquid tight as the cable exits the house? Would a nonmetallic bell box work, so I wouldn’t have to be concerned about grounding the box. I really don’t want to splice the cable. If so, what type of fitting could use on the back of the bell box?
