REFLECTOR: conduit in a conduit?

Nylon 6/6
Decomposition Temp >300C
Hazardous Decomposition Products:
Carbon Monoxide (CO),
Carbon Dioxide (CO2),
Amonia (NH3),
Hydrogen Cyanide (HCN),
Nitrogen Dioxides (NOx)

While some of the decomposition products are rather nasty, the high
decomposition temp along with relative isolation in the wiring ducts is
not likely to produce any appreciable hazards.  That said please realize I
am not a chemist and this is merely my opinion.
