Absolutely. Electrical wiring unsupported and subject to abrasion and damage, PARTICULARLY where it contacts the edge of the metal duct, creates fire and shock hazard.



Also is Romex permitted to be run along supply ducts.

Yes, as long as it is not secured to them.

Yes, as long as it is not secured to them.

Would you be kind enough to support that statement with a code section?

Dana,

Which part?

You mean screwing the NM cable straps to metal duct or flex duct?
