+Southwire 64350501
+SIMpull® 16/2 Low Voltage Signal Cable, Blue
+```

+This method is compliant with NEC 725.136(I)(1),
+which allows control circuits to share a raceway with power conductors
+if either all of the power conductors or all of the control conductors
+are themselves in a raceway,
+or in metal-sheathed, metal-clad, non–metallic-sheathed, or Type UF cable.
