Well, I am ready for my first proposal but I want input on the wording before I submit it. Please let me know what you think but I am a sensitive guy so be nice. :grin:
The underscore is the new wording and the strikethru is the deleted language.
Here is my substantiation
The underscore is the new wording and the strikethru is the deleted language.
Informational note is untouched210.52(D) Bathrooms. In dwelling units, at least one receptacle outlet shall be installed in bathrooms within 900 mm (3 ft) of the outside edge of each basin. The receptacle outlet shall be located on a wall or partition that is adjacent to the basin or basin countertop, located on the countertop, or installed on the side or face of the basin cabinet. In no case shall the receptacle be located more than 300 mm (12 in.) below the countertop height. Receptacle outlet assemblies listed for the application shall be permitted to be installed in the countertop.
Here is my substantiation
The wording as it is now will allow a receptacle to be placed near the floor level on a wall adjacent to the sink. If we are given a minimum height below the countertop on a cabinet then we should be consistent and expect the minimum height below the countertop to be carried thru in all situations.
