Hello,
Looking for advice on installing a receptacle outlet to metal shelving in a big box store...
The customer is currently using an extension cord plugged into a receptacle outlet that is mounted about 6 feet off the floor behind an end cap display that is bolted to the floor and has been told the extension cord has to be removed because it can't serve as a permanent way to get power. Since it requires climbing into the shelving to plug and unplug the cord I've be asked to mount a box near the outside of the rack....
This shelving is the type found in warehouses and large hardware stores.
I have no clue what NEC rules would apply here other than the 180VA (which I need to review as well)
Thanks for any help,
Chris
