Question on wire usage:
I want to run my main #8 wires through my attic, down my walls, into the back of my disconnect, next to my service panel. Can I use Romex/NM 8/3 wire? I don't believe there's an issue with the wire in the attic or walls, but the wire will need to penetrate the roof.
My current plan is to use about a one foot long piece of EMT through the roof sheathing, flashed and terminated underneath my disconnect box. Will this fly? Essentially, I will have about one foot of Romex in conduit, above roof, in a wet location. How is this situation usually handled?
Thanks!Comment

Just to clarify, I have two disconnects. One on the ground next to the service panel, and one on the roof, attached to one of my racks. The roof disconnect is the one I'm referring to.Question on wire usage:
