To satisfy curiosity, "Romex" was invented and first
marketed by General Cable in 1922. It was developed at
their Rome, NY factory.



The things you learn on the internet. I wonder how many people know where
the name came from. (not that many care) I used Romex to wire up the
cabin I stay at when I hunt for Naughtier.
