I missed the 1/2" requirement in my last reply - this is the corrected

That's not all you missed, and no, your reply is not corrected, it's still wrong because you're
still missing the main point that whether the cable physically fits or not is meaningless. The
ONLY thing that counts is whether the connector is listed for such use.

The main reason for emphasizing the distinction is so that newbies are not mislead by your
incorrect post into thinking that -- for example -- because they can fit three 14-2 cables in a
standard Romex connector it must be OK to do so.
