We are doing a kitchen island. The sides are 1" thick wood. Question is, will an 8cu in box be compliant with one 12/2 NM and a receptacle? tmk, there is a 2.25cu deduction for every wire (6.75cu) + 2 cu in for the receptacle (no internal clamps) = 8.75cu>8cu = not up to code. Is there an exception for the ground like pancake boxes have? A box more than 1" deep may/will interfere with the drawers/racks on them. Options?
