In the 2008 Code I do not see a 410.30(C) anything.
410.62(C) on Cor Connected fixtures states in (c)(1)(2)(c):
(1) Cord-Connected Installation. A luminaire or a listed assembly shall be permitted to be cord connected if the following conditions apply:
(1) The luminaire is located directly below the outlet or busway.
(2) The flexible cord meets all the following:
a. Is visible for its entire length outside the luminaire
b. Is not subject to strain or physical damage
c. Is terminated in a grounding-type attachment plug cap or busway plug, or is a part of a listed assembly incorporating a manufactured wiring system connector in accordance with 604.6(C), or has a luminaire assembly with a strain relief and canopy having a maximum 152 mm (6 in.) long section of raceway for attachment to an outlet box above a suspended ceiling

with the underlined showing as being a change.

Thanks Augie:smile:
Would anyone happen to know if this got moved to somewhere else in the code?
I tried (and failed miserably) to use the search feature to find a free online version of the 08.
Does anyone have a link to a copy?

410.30 in the '05 is 410.62 in the '08.

(C) Electric-Discharge Luminaires.
(1) Cord-Connected Installation. A luminaire or a listed assembly shall be permitted to be cord connected if the following conditions apply:
(1) The luminaire is located directly below the outlet or busway.
(2) The flexible cord meets all the following:
a. Is visible for its entire length outside the luminaire
b. Is not subject to strain or physical damage
c. Is terminated in a grounding-type attachment plug cap or busway plug, or is a part of a listed assembly incorporating a manufactured wiring system connector in accordance with 604.6(C), or has a luminaire assembly with a strain relief and canopy having a maximum 152 mm (6 in.) long section of raceway for attachment to an outlet box above a suspended ceiling.
 
That section is now in art. 410.62

(1) The luminaire is located directly below the outlet or busway.

Of course. Now that you've gotten three identical answers, we still need to stretch this thread out to 30 or 40 posts!
 
Three posts within minutes of each other and it is way past my bedtime. I will have to drown my sorrows with you tomorrow, Ken.
