School auditorium has a suspended ceiling with a fully accessible catwalk in attic space to maintain house lighting.
The design engineer specified new LED fixtures to replace old incandescent fixtures.
Problem: New LED fixtures came with a factory installed flexible cord with a molded plug. The fixture cannot be modified to accept flex.
Local Inspector cited the installation; violates 400-8. (flexible cords above ceilings)
Question:
Can 400-7 (8) be used to approve this installation? or other ideas?
Thanks,
Tom
