Any issues with wiring lamp wire to 14/2 wire? I am going to wire some
undercabinet lights to a switch. I was going to use a transformer,
but the HD guy said no need to. Just run the lamp wire from the
lights into a junction box, and connect it to the wire (14/2, since
it will be going through my attic) coming from the switch. Is that
okay?



I may be wrong, but I don't believe lamp wire can be hard wired under
current code.

Not now. Not ever.

Art. 400-8 ...Flexible cords shall not be used
as a substitute for fixed wiring; nor where run thru holes
in walls/ceilings/floors, or concealed (little editing)
