First let me say I love this place - I've been through 2 renos with plenty of help from everyone here. so thanks!
Recently (about a year ago) we moved into a 'Mansor' - style home ... at least that's what someone told me it was called ...
we're doing a number of renovations - while I had the walls opened, I figured I might as well replace the aluminum wiring.
if you look at the picture below, you can see the outlets on the second floor were run on the outside of the 2x4 exterior wall between the roof (instead of drilling through the 2x4's).
If I were to run 14/2 romex, can I do this with copper? staple it to the outside of exterior wall instead of drilling through the 2x4 and running the wire through the wall?
Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks!
