    Do you include this in your reporting. Also is Romex permitted to be run along supply ducts.

    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.

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