What is the minimum clearance to the bottom of a light fixture? Which code is it in? (If any?)
We have an apartment building where in the individual apartment hallways, the ceilings are at 6'-8" so the HVAC ducts can run above the ceiling.
The electrician recalls there is some requirement in some code that there is no room left for a surface mounted fixture and he must use a recessed fixture. Neither of us can recall what the minimum is or where it appears.
Anyone?
Thanks,
RC
