Wiring to pool light

[george t. everett]

Article 680.23(F)(1) of the 2005 NEC allows MC cable, where installed within buildings, to supply pool lights. Does 680.23(F)(2A) allow the EGC to be spliced in a junction box at the point where the MC changes to conduit as it leaves the building? If so, what means can be used to make this splice?

In my area which is southern New Jersey the inspectors allow a splice but it must be made in a permanant fashion such as a crimped connector. I would chech with the AHJ.
