Absolutely.

Yeah...it's a mess.

[Jim Baird]

...with the AC, no. With the box fastening, yes. As an AHJ I had a discussion of bundling with an electrician whose wire puller put a bundle of romex into a pvc sleeve to penetrate a ceiling frame. His argument about typical residential loads won my approval.

Bundling becomes a concern if it istretches 12 feet or more, and I have never come across more than a couple of feet in residential.

But those pictures show long spans with no clamps, and missing securement of boxes, and bundling, too. Yep, it needs repair and that means support and clamps every 4 feet.

Are you thinking that this bundling is creating a derating issue? If so you are wrong.

The bundling (what there is of it), is the least of the problem.
