Can I use 10/3 Gray Solid CU UF-B W/G Wire for 240 indoor? Bought the wrong wire and already ran it.

Coach, why about the red ribbon warning tape? Split the difference and add tape? Thanks.

So I'm a new master electrician thanks to you in the state of Virginia thanks by the way. You are a awesome trainer . So normally i dig 24 inches down for say an above ground 20 amp locking outlet and i run in UF cable and sleave IN schedule 80 when i 90 up on both sides. So my question with this 12 inch rule do i have to protect whole thing in pvc and not just when it exits the ground using this 12 inch rule ? Thanks again for your expertise

@@ElectricalCodeCoach lol i was afraid of that comment . The good old AHJ. Thats why we do 18 inches and sleeve the whole way thru cause we dont wanna fail for personal opinion or argue for that matter

This is great, I am having an above ground pool installed and have decided to tackle the electrical myself. So, as long as I have a GFCI breaker I can run UF cable for the pool pump and then a separate GFCI breaker I can also run a UF cable for the utility receptacle?

Very interesting! Good thing I don’t care about code!

In the company where I work we always run 2 circuits of 20 amps, for the garages and we put a double pole switch, then a circuit for the lighting, and one for the contacts controlled with GFCI, but nothing at beginning , only the double 20 amps breaker. is this new or change by state. thanks

Hey coach, in your illustration you show a multi wire branch circuit (UF cable with a black, red and white with ground). I see you could have a double pole breaker and be fine but how would you do this with a GFCI receptical? This seems out of sorts. If you pigtail the black and red on the load side of the GFCI you could have a damaged black or red and I am wondering if the GFCI would fail to see this. These branch circuits with shared neutrals is something I would rather avoid.

Great question! Both of those gfci's will function just fine if you GFCI protect locally, however you could not put it on a 2-pole GFCI breaker in it function on the other end

Very good explanation thanks

Great question!! You would use table 300.5

Can you use that wire in walls or would you just use it to get to the buildings and use a different kind of wire in the walls because I do not want to buy 250 foot of this wire and have to switch to a different kind of wire I am use 12/2 wire
