Closet lighting

[andyselec@aol.com]

"NEC 410.16(A)(C)
[FONT=Arial,Arial][FONT=Arial,Arial]Luminaires (lighting fixtures) installed in clothes closets shall have the following minimum clearances from the defined storage area: [/FONT][/FONT]

[FONT=Arial,Arial][FONT=Arial,Arial][/FONT][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Arial][FONT=Arial,Arial]*Surface mounted fluorescent or LED luminaires listed for installation in storage space shall be permitted. "


Does anyone know where I can get lights tha meet this requirement? Allowed to be installed in the space?

Thanks

I have seen them in ads. I'll see if I can come up with it. The LED I saw was basically a rope light built into the closet rod. Here is the website http://www.winonalighting.com/products/new_products/winona_led/cl

I usuall get away with using a recessed can with a shower trim on it or a fluorescent wrap fixture mounted on the wall above the door.

I think Andy is looking for a fixture that can be in the storage area. A recessed can cannot be in the storage area of the closet.

Thanks Dennis , Any idea on pricing and are these the only ones approved for "storage space"?

Cool! I could have used a couple of those in one of my boss's house. She has very shallow closets in the guest bedrooms, I ended up wall mounting some enclosed floresents above the doors.
