I'm going to bow out of the flaming, but this wouldn't be compliant. Flex cords anywhere there's a wet or damp location would be frowned upon unless there's a GFI. Same reason why many outlets in such locations for specific equipment (diswasher or similar) are only a single convenience outlet; you can only plug a single device in which prevents the extension cord effect that could in theory, lay in water.BraveSirRobbin said:At the risk of starting a firestorm of posts against this method, I offer the following:
Get an extension cord like THIS and just carefully cut between a small section of cord to separate the wiring with an X-Acto knife. The insulation is left intact and you can just use the open clamp to clamp around the end conductor.
Instead of this you could just get a plug and re-terminate that end after you separate the wiring.
The LV leads on a RIB are generally rated the same voltage as the intended HV, the separation is done via a barrier in a separate box or dedicated,listed nonconductive barrier in a box. Basically, you separate out the voltages and conductors the closest possible and compliant way. Your LV system cabling does NOT enter the HV box at all.
