Are these the proper heights for electrical boxes?
If someone is wiring a new house from scratch, would these be the proper heights off the floor for electrical boxes:
Outlets: 13" (to bottom of box)
Switches: 48"
Outlets/switches above kitchen and bath countertops: 42"
Electric range outlet: 5"
Whole-house fan switch: 60"
Thermostat: 54"
Vanity lights: 80" to center of round box
