augie47 Moderator Staff member Location Tennessee Occupation State Electrical Inspector (Retired) Oct 25, 2023 #2 The nameplate certainly skirts around the requirements of 110.14 or 334.80 and #8 NM certainly would not meet Code. I supposed you could use a 90° conductor such as #8 THHN to a remote 90° termination point and then change over to a #6 NM.
