I have a office area with sheetrock ceiling with accessible attic overhead,Do they make a power pole designed for this application?
The power poles like the ones made from wiremold are set up to mount to a T bar,with a trim for the dropped ceiling, The attic above has a floor that I could fish to the pole, there would be a junction in between the ceiling and floor above,Also the only thing holding the pole would be the sheetrock from the ceiling...
Thanks for the complement, I’m sure your smart enough to understand the junction box would end up not readily accessible.
Cut ceiling so it fits tight, it isn't going anywhere. Should someone get abusive with it in a T-bar ceiling chances are it moves just as easy if not easier than through that hole in the sheet rock ceiling.The power poles like the ones made from wiremold are set up to mount to a T bar,with a trim for the dropped ceiling, The attic above has a floor that I could fish to the pole, there would be a junction in between the ceiling and floor above,Also the only thing holding the pole would be the sheetrock from the ceiling,I believe that would be in violation.I was wondering what others may have done.Its a desk type work station on wheels,but will most likely never move, out in the middle of a large office type area,
Junction box ends up within attic floor? Make an access panel in the floor somehow.
