Bathroom Wall Light
Previous owner did not believe in following building code. I have now installed the junction box for my light fixture. However there is an issue. The romex needs to go through the stud (which is why the drywall was carved in this weird way. However, the line is tight. I am seeing my options (worst to better) as: Wire the fixture with the Romex going on top of the stud and plastering the part that will not be covered by the fixture wall plate. Knock out more drywall than I did for the junction box, drill a hole through the stud, and stretch, with barely any slack, the wire into the box. Re-run the wire through the wall, which I do not have the knowledge base to do. Am I missing an option? https://preview.redd.it/ibrr4m82dine1.jpg?width=4284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=74b6a574addaa83e5437cd39e85bddea1ca28e33 submitted by /u/tutal [link] [comments]
