The NEC does not prohibit type NM from being installed in conduit (as long as
conduit fill limits are not exceeded) and, in fact, requires it (or other
protective means) in 334.15(B) for certain installation conditions

I believe the issue is conductor heating. Sheathed cable has to be in open-air
to maintain its rating. Conduit that encloses it impacts air flow. Someone
advise if my understanding is incorrect. I do not fully understand the
electrical code. I am not licensed to expound on the electrical code. The only
person I've ever encountered that would be even close, would be Mike Holt...

It would be much harder to pull than individual conductors and it would be a
waste of conduit fill capacity. > Running twisted separate conductors in
conduit would not be. Right. And if it's steel conduit, twisting is not
important. 73, Jim K9YC _______________________________________________ RFI
