Romex would be the easiest thing to use, as long as there are no local
restrictions against it

Wiring Recessed Lighting in/from Insulated Attic

What wiring to use (Bx/Romex or Conduit?)

2 of the upper rooms in our home need some more lighting. Each room
already has recessed lighting installed. I'd like to tap power off the
lights already installed in the room to power the new recessed lights.

I've purchased recessed cans for insulated areas (applicable for direct
contact with insulation). Can I use Romex to run from the existing
can lights to the new cans? Or should I really be using conduit or
flexible conduit instead? The installation will be performed from the
attic.

Code issues? I know I cannot be advised specifically on the code in my
area (IL), but generally speaking, I want to be sure I remain within
code.

Thanks,
Jeff
