I know there is no code for switch heights but the NEC references ANSI NECA 1-2000 Standards Practices for Good Workmanship in Electrical Contracting and that they should be at 48" This is part of the code referenced in 110.12 FPN.
I had a modular company install the switches 54" to the top of the boxes which makes it look really odd. In none of the drawings stamped is there any heights and when the customer ordered the home, in none of the literature is it stated they would be at 54".
Is there any thing referenced in either the BOCA or IBC code that would help in trying to get this changed or help legally for them to be requred to change this to the STANDARD height?
