while I admire your ingenuity, the same can not be said for you adherence to the NEC electrical code. That MC cable you’re using is not suitable for outside location. Sealtight/Carflex NM is required.

This is true.
It never ceases to amaze me how people can put themselves up for ridicule when they slap something up half-assed and call themselves “experts”.
I’ve seen seasoned electricians think that this is something where you can just pick up the manual and slap a system up without any knowledge on how the systems really work.
That’s like reading a book on how to drive a car and then jumping right on the highway!

This is the type of “self proclaimed” expert that will teach you enough to get in trouble and burn your house down.
There is no electrical inspector on earth that would pass this installation.
Before you take any pointers from the “self proclaimed experts”, check with your “NABCEP Certified” experts and ask if the installation is going to fly.

Type UF (underground feed) rated for direct burial in ground and all outdoor locations, and waterproof connectors to box and panel, as well as splice/wire connectors APPROVED for D.C. might improve this setup. And don’t fall off the roof.
