Then it seems that you ("nobody") haven't read the thread, are confusing
"floor" with "story" or both.

Definition: "Townhouse  2.  A usually single-family house of two or
sometimes three stories that is usually connected to a similar house by a
common sidewall. "

Our 3 (or 2-1/2) story house has 5 floors depending on what you count;-)

Is there some assertion that you'd like to make with respect to building
codes or NEC or physics or aesthetics or economics or something else to
explain what you mean by "conduit is a must"?
