The carpenter framing my house says his electrician leaves a loop of wire outside of the box. I assume it is in case the drywall installers damage the wire, so more could be pulled inside the box. This is the first I have heard of this and have not wired my house that way. I can't find anything in the code that talks about extra wire outside the box only the length of wire required inside the box. Is it normal to put in a loop of wire outside the box?
