Someone wants me to put receptacles around the outside of his deck, tapping off an existing duplex on the siding of his house. His deck is too low to get under and run the wire from behind, so he asked if I can run wiremold around the outside to make it look better. My plan is to run the wiremold, but put UF Romex inside of it. I know the boxes aren't rated for the outdoors, but could I use weatherproof boxes w/ some sort of "from-to" to connect to the wiremold? Also, is running romex inside of wiremold even allowed? Heat build-up? Any answers would be greatly appreciated. I'm giving them an estimate for the wiremold and one using 1/2 PVC spray-painted to whatever color they want. Hopefully they go the PVC route! It'll definetly be cheaper!
