Romex is legal in a garage.

I ran mine (to code) behind the walls. Which fortunately had not been installed in the shop, yet.
Question for the pros (Sparky) Why GFI's in a shop / place where there is no water ?

There are these groups of guys called code panels. These guys go through the code book and think shit up to make electricity safer for us. Nobody but them understand why they think this crap up. I think it is because a gfci will trip quicker than a breaker in the instance there is damage to a piece of equipment. This rule only applies to 120v circuits not 220v circuits. go figure.

I had to look up the difference between MC and BX. Learn something new everyday
I knew BX was a brand name like Romex, but I've just been calling any armor clad/metal clad cable BX, i.e. Xerox vs copier machine. I now know the difference. Thanks.
While we are on the topic, my Dad taught me that if I was taking the trouble to run wire, think Romex here, but I would guess it is just as relevant to MC. I may as well run 12/3 or 14/3 rather than 12/2 or 14/2. The cost difference isn't that great, and it will give you greater flexibility down the road if you make changes in your switches. Your thoughts?
So I can use romex right?
If so I'm going to use that because it seems to be easy. Just run the one wire and then hook up your grounds, positive, and negative wires.
