Any quick and dirty method besides a JB?

Cool. I thought those were only for BX. Still learning the finer points of this resi renovation chit. Can I put two 14/2 NMD's into one of those things?

How about a slip on bushing over the end of the pipe. Just like you would for a phone pipe. Ive also put a connector with a bushing on the end of the pipe.

EMT in resi, that's pretty rare. Not really sure if your inspector would allow 2 NMD cables, could maybe use 14/3 instead?

No not really. This isn't the Canaduh section

2 14/2s are fine in a from-to

Some dumbass ran NMD through steel studs without grommets. It's a rather large utility room so I'm just going to abandon the offending circuits and run EMT on the surface. BX run on the wall looks cheesy.

Two furnaces, two switch legs. I'll throw in a JB.

Actually, these upper crust clients like it when you give them the "industrial" look. I put a 200 amp fused disconnect in a basement once. The client is very proud of her "Frankenstein switch" .

I put 2 (14/2s) in a 2 screw set connector all the time.

The plastic bushing can be used as long as the cable can be stapled within 12 inches from the entry point. I've been told by a very picky inspector that you have to refer to chapter 9 note (9) pertaining to multi conductor elliptical shaped cable for figuring NM in conduit. It then becomes a single conductor that is figured at 53% fill. Basically (1) 12-2 w/g had to be in a 3/4 pipe. Then I've had another inspector say maximum of (1) 12/2wg in a 1/2, and (2) in a 3/4....

Edit... My bad... You're in Canada...what a waste of typing for me...

It's not like we're building a nuclear power plant here. I'm sure what works down there works up here in a residential utility room .

You could maybe use a 1/2" EMT connector threaded into a rigid coupling on one end and an L16 on the other end.

Please, define "L16"? Here we would get hit for a "put-together" not being listed.

single connector for armoured cable and 3/8 flex.
