Flach, Electrical Consultant, New Orleans, LA Prevailing misconceptions about the present-day armored cable most likely stem from imperfections inherent in the original BX. Improvements made in the product are readily apparent when today's armored cable (right) is shown side-by-side with the old BX. Today's armored cable, historically known as BX and more correctly as Type AC, has proved to be a safe, reliable, and economical wiring method. However, there continue to be restrictions, and sometimes prohibitions, on its use in many areas. What is behind such restrictions and are they warranted? These restrictions on the use of armored cable, for the most part, are the result of years of misconceptions. Today, many electrical inspectors are reconsidering their position on armored cable because of its long safety record, NEC recognition, and improvements made since its introduction: - Wire ELECTRICIAN'S WIRE UF-B Underground Feeder & Branch Circuit Cable, 600 Volt, Copper Conductors. ec Soulhwire NM -B indoor, Non-Metallic Sheathed Cable, 600 Volt, Copper Conductors. eae — ee Southwire THHIN Stranded or Solid Copper Building Wire, 600 Volt. Copper Conductors, GE = Quin Various matorials aro utilized for outer covorings as wire and cable, Lead provides, moisture protection. Neoprene gives moisture, corrosion and abrasion protection. Metal wire or Tape coverings of bronze or steal protect against rodent attack or physical damage. 10.” COPPER AND ALUMINUM CONDUCTORS ‘the use of aluminum wiring has‘increased because of its inherent weight advantages over copper, with concomitant lower installation cast, However, it is not so much re- Sommended because it forms an oxide, which is an adhesive and poorly conductive film, within minutes on any exposed aluminum surface. It ever aluminum conductor is sed. it should be restricted to sizes not smaller than #AWG. Copper conductors are preferred in all references, 4, FLEXIBLE METAL CLAD CABLE (BX) ‘Among the most common types of cable run without raceways—is the NEC type AC anal clad cable, commonly known by the trade name "BX". Itis an assembly of wires, normally plastic insulated, bound together with a tepe or braid and then wrapped with 2 Splral-wound interlocking strip of steel tapg, Such ceble must have an internal metallic ponding strip in contact with the armor for its entire length. The assembly is installed as a unit, usually by simple U-clamps or staples holding it againts beams. walls, ceilings and columns. This type of installation is frequently used in residences and in the rewit- ing of existing buildings. Such armored cable can be pulled into place through existing spaces in back of plastered surfaces, under floor joists or between studding in the Walls, Special couplings, box connectors, and other fittings are made for BX and to in- terconnect BX with rigid conduit systems. cotoR coved, RUBSER of THERMOPLASTIC.

However, not having the physical protection of inetallic ar- mor, use is restricted to small buildings, that is, residential and other structures not ex- ceeding three floors above grade. This cable type comprises an assembly of two or more plastic-insulated conductoss and a ground wire, all coyered with a flame- retardant, moisture-resistant plastic jacket. In the case of type NMC, the jacket is also corrosion resistant. The plestic jacket, in lou of the armor on type AC, makes type NM easier to handle but more vulnérable to physical damage.
