I'm getting ready to rewire my old 1911 post-beam barn. One side will be livestock, the other will be for tractors and equipment. The wiring installed currently has inadequate lights and outlets. Last year I put in a new breaker panel. Looking at the latest NEC, they are requiring PVC conduit and weather tight boxes throughout due to the "corrosive, dusty and wet conditions". What kind of wiring do you guys have or think makes sense in livestock barns?

I think the furthest has been the Two Cylinder 7 in the Amana Colonies last year. Lots of stuff, lots of people. I've also atten
