How to Secure Lo-volt and AC Lines to Vinyl Siding
OK... what to recommend here?
1) I know that you are not supposed to secure anything to the service entrance conduit, but does this prohibition extend to other conduit at the exterior. Can you cable-tie the AC lines and other low-volt to the conduit to the AC disconnect, for example? To the conduit running from the service disconnect (at the meter cabinet) to a load-side panel, as is done here ?
Generally, what is the correct sort of "cable management" for low voltage wiring and similar material? If it's not on the conduit, what is the "correct" way to route and secure lo-volt at the exterior on vinyl siding . On masonry? Other than conventional mounting blocks, is anyone aware of a better way to route and secure this stuff?
2) For the AC lines is there a fastener type that does not over-compress the foam insulation, and which will secure the lines once the foam fails? Generally, what is the "right" way to do this, and where is it documented?
(Also, I do realize that those are not UV resistant exterior cable ties.)
Thanks as always.
