## Questions & Answers

**Q: the wire is used  inside can I use it  underground  as out side under ground**
A: No, not up to code even in conduit, you need UF (Underground Feeder) cable. http://www.amazon.com/SouthWire-Company-13055955-Wire-250-Foot/dp/B001D4A9EO/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&qid=1446989592&sr=8-12&keywords=underground+feeder+wire

**Q: Is this a 3 wire cable?**
A: 2 wire w ground

**Q: How much does it weigh**
A: About 9 pounds, I am thinking.  Go down to Lowes or Home Depot and lift one off the rack and see what you think.

**Q: Can this wire be used in a crawl space attached to joists?**
A: It must be stapled every 4' plus routed properly [although some localities may not always enforce the routing - I always ran my attic wires protected].
