I did an inspection today on a single family house that was being rebuilt on the inside. I walked up the stairs to the second floor landing and I saw a sort of halfwall with no receptacle installed in accordance with NEC 210.50(A)(1)&(2). I call it a halfwall because it does not reach the ceiling, it only goes halfway up from the floor. Question: Is a receptacle required? Does it still constitute a wall even though it doesn't reach the ceiling?
