I am not a code inspector the vent was performing as intended would I have installed it that way. No they were just trying to get back to the original roof hole. I had no problem with the wiring it was pigtailed to an outlet. There was a permanent light fixture, the platform for working was to small.

What are your thoughts on the dirty leg should be or should not be is the question.
