Code Q & A in a recent EC&M magazine says that AC cable can be used in patient care areas because it has a bonding strip that makes it a suitable fault current path. It also says that MC cable isn't suitable as a fault current path and can't be used in patient care areas.
Is it really this simple? All AC is OK, and all MC is not? Or are there non-hospital grade AC cables or hospital grade MC cables?
