yepper exposed romex is bad ju ju. just waiting for a rodenten(rat) to chew thru it/zap himself and the FIRE begins! YIKES!
as long as no moisture around, those boxes are fine. next time ya see an electrician around, ask him what lokal codes are before inviting mr inspector in, as codes have changed over the recent years, and no inspector,nor lic'd bonded/insured electrician will risk his job or license involving shoddy work. and if they see it(non compliance).................YER RED TAGGED BIG TIME! and they dont go away until brought into compliance.
i just went thru a 3rd degree gestapo interrogation by a hoa board member moron here. it involved a very very high electrical bill received by hoa. since we were the only ones in their recent alzheimers memory to ask permission for a 60 amp service. we got their exalted permission/applied for permits, posted permits, proceeded with class 1/division 1 NMEA CODE involving electrical in an aircraft hanger with fuel. hired lic'd bonded insured IBEW electrician. its a HUGE DAMN DEAL and INSANE SPENDY! well we did it by the freeking NMEA BOOK TO THE LETTER and when all said and done our meter for this 60amp service showed (1) thats "ONE"........freeking kilowatt hour of energy used. so it was obvious to this MORON that we were not stealing energy. had we NOT been DEAD NUTZ to CODE............it would have gotten very ugly very fast for us, as he was LOOKING for a reason to nail us. the town zoning enforcement officer also made damn sure we crossed our "t's" and dotted our "i's". the old days of kawboy electrical are over due to litigation.
my aunt died in an electrical fire. it does happen, and cutting corners aint kool. do it by the book as theres a damn good reason for the codes.
