I am trying to get a handle on whether and how to classify a small cabinet shop. The guy builds wooden kitchen cabinets, and says he has permanent dust collection on all wood working equipment. Additionally he says he has portable dust collection equipment,(a shop vac, I don't know). Can anyone give me some insight into whether this would be a Class III location throughout, just in part of the building, not at all, etc.?
It seems that the electrical contractor used cast boxes, bell boxes, with threaded entries, but the manufacturer says they aren't dusttight. The inspector is concerned that if this is Class III, the boxes are a problem.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
