I could give you details as to what that is, but the question is not clear.
If you are asking what that is I am sure everyone knows.

It looks like one helping the other, as long as pressure from the dishwasher doesn't pull the wire out of the wall.

I used to install those DW drain lines every day for a living so do not go there.
Happy now?

If I was a HI I would be looking towards the electrical problem first and the plumbing problem second,but I would report both as BS.

I am absolutly shocked that noone has voted for electrical problem............

I would think that exposed NMC would be more important than a possible cross connection. Maybee I have lost my edge..

I am fairly sure they may not be exposed inside of a cabinet either.
