JesseWBryant Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 I can't remember the specific reason or if there is a code for it, but why cant you run the low voltage wiring from the thermostat to the condenser unit in the same conduit as the electrical wiring that runs from the service disconnect box to the condenser unit? Just one of those things where if I am going to tell them its wrong, I want to make sure I know why. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
