I'd like to get some advice on when to specify LFMC and when (if ever) to not allow LFNC. When I read the "uses permitted" sections in the NEC, they seem like carbon copies of one another. I would expect that LFMC has a better ability to withstand physical damage, but that turns out not to be the case.
So what then is the principle advantage of using the LFMC conduit with the metal core, as opposed to LFNC without?
I know about ground continuity, which could be an advantage or a disadvantage. I'm looking more for environment & location reasons why you would select one over the other.
