air conditioner and heat strip problem

[rickst29]

glad to help out.

Do be super careful in connectingthe new pigtails to the romex solid wire conductors wires inside the box. If they break off, you might consider pulling non-Romex stranded wires or cable, AWG-12 or better, all the way to the Air Conditioner area, although you'll need to at least remove the bag seals in order to do that. If the Romex is behind the framing, rather than cut into it, you'll need to in even further.
