New installs 14" to the bottom of receptalces & 48 to top of switches.

We find it easier to measure the bottom & top of boxes if they are all the same.infinity said:Typically we use 15" and 45" to the center. Works out about the same as 77401's heights.

I carry a big hammerdingokangaroo said:yeah....unless they decide to bury you.
drg said:Jim, are you saying that beyond using resonable methods to locate a buried box or 2 you would just take out you hammer and smash the wall up ?
While frustrating as this is, I hope you are just joking when you say this kind of stuff and don't really mean it.
