Dennis Alwon Moderator Staff member Location Chapel Hill, NC Occupation Retired Electrical Contractor Aug 26, 2011 #2 There is no commercial requirement for placement along the wall however there are ADA rules for min and max heights. So you can have a room in a commercial building with no outlets and it would meet code-- not advisable but it would comply.
