We don't usually deal with this so I thought I'd see if any of you know the code section covering neon lights.
It was mentioned to me that any neon sign requires a dedicated circuit. I'm frankly not sure about that since it's out of our world, but this particular job is not a neon sign, it is an interior light in a commercial space. Does that matter? Is a dedicated circuit required for this installation?
We got involved because we originally installed the outlet that the neon light is now plugged into. When the neon light was installed (it is a permanent installation - approximately 6' long) the lighting guy asked if the plug was a dedicated outlet and indicated to the business owner that it would be required. Does anyone know the code section that covers this?
Thanks
