I was doing a couple of estimates recently and it seems it is popular to add built in bookcases,cabinets,wine cabinets to rooms in this area. If I am wiring an unfinished basement with a cabinet occupying one side of a room from the floor up to about 3 feet would I be required to treat the top of the cabinet as a countertop as in 210.52 (C) ??
I am planning it that way but I wondered if there were situations where you could have a built in cabinet in a room not classified as a "kitchens, pantries, breakfast rooms, dining rooms, and similar areas of dwelling units" and just have no outlets along that wall. Some cost cutting customers I have done {not accepted !} estimates for try to infer I am adding unnecessary stuff.
I would suppose not but thanks for anyone who might have run into this.
