I need to run a single dedicated circuit in my garage for a utility sink pump. The garage has just been sheetrocked and I realized this pump needed a dedicated line after the fact :(
It's about a 25ft run from the panel to the pump location, and pretty much a straight run down the foundation wall. This line will have to be exposed, I'm not ripping out the sheetrock again. Everything else has been done in NM-B through the framing and under the sheetrock.
What's going to be the easier/less expensive way to go with this - run it in AC/MC cable, or THHN cables in EMT? I don't have an armored cable cutter, but I also don't have a conduit bender to make the offset on the panel & receptacle box.
Any real difference?
