In a 3 story hotel the design calls for basically back to back outlet boxes in the room separation walls. Since these are 1 hour rated walls, outlet boxes are supposed to be separated by 24" when located in the same wall. How have people maintained the required separation if the spacing is less? Putty Pads in the electrical boxes? Fiberglass insulation in stud spaces? By the way, these are non-metallic boxes in wood framed walls.
