Running 12/2 Romex into a metal box? There’s a right way—and a few wrong ones. I walk through 8 common options, from a bare “pass-through” (don’t do this) to plastic bushings. Always follow your local electrical code and manufacturer instructions. #Electrical #DIY #HomeImprovement #Romex #ToolTips | Everyday Home Repairs

Need to extend or repair a Romex wire? Here’s how to use a splice kit—no wire stripping required! Start by freeing the wire and trimming evenly. Press the wires into the kit; the forks inside cut through insulation and make a solid connection. Secure the clear cap, check the connections, and screw the housing together. Optionally wrap with electrical tape for added peace of mind. No exposed wires, all code-approved—safe and easy for any DIYer! #DIYElectrical #HomeImprovement ##writingtips | Ever
