@Megawatts37 Yes I have done that before. I am going to throw this out-- I have an inspector that is big on UL Listing. If he would see someone using a romex connector as a chase nipple he would fail it and state that the connector is not UL Listed for that purpose. A bit over zealous but is it any different than smoothing out the edges. Simple solution-think about what you need for parts before going out to do a installation. BTW megawatts37, I appreciate your input!!
@Megawatts37 Guilty as charged! I didn't have a chase nipple or plastic snap in bushing. I did however smooth out the sharp edges on the plastic enclosure. It was 1/2 hour drive to local box store,what would others done in this circumstance?
