It's fine, you're not in a wet location. Another thing the code does require
is to seal the threaded plugs with compound. If you don't do it, water just

I'm suprised than NM cable is OK. Are you 100% sure? I definitely
don't mind as I have a bunch of 12GA NM left over from my basement...

Thanks for any further explanation you can provide...
