Tried stranded wire for a change and I'm not going back

Everyone says solid wire is better for commercial jobs but I swapped to stranded on a 30-unit apartment last month in Austin and the whole thing went faster. The zip ties held fine and I didn't have to fight with rigid bends. Has anyone else found stranded just works better for long pulls?

Stranded on a 30-unit job? That's a lot of faith in zip ties, man. You sure you're not just looking for a reason to buy a new pair of wire strippers?

Did you notice a big difference in pulling tension too?
