I want to add a surface-mounted GFCI outlet on the wall in an unfinished basement (for a washing machine). The wiring going to the outlet will be
12/2 NM.I think I can figure out how to do it if I just use a metal box and metal conduit. But, I am wondering if there is a way that I can do it using plastic/PVC instead of metal. I am thinking of using this type of PVC box:
and then running the 12/2 NM wire down along the wall through 1/2-inch PVC conduit to get to the box.
If I do that, my question is, "Is there some type of fitting or adapter that goes on the top end of the PVC conduit where the 12/2 NM enters the PVC conduit?"
If so, is that type of fitting shown anywhere in this product brochure?:
