Didn`t 02 code allow receptacles that are mounted under cabinets but within 20 ins. of countertop to be considered as serving countertops 210 52 B 5,99 cycle limited it to 18 ins.A receptacle in a cabinet above a stove for a micro (is the way we have done it for along time requires no gfci protection but we dedicate that circuit.Not required but saves time on rough in and call backs

George are you talking about receps mounted under a flat topped counter top ? 210 52 B 5 exception ??? then 12 in comes into play what I mean wasn`t 18 from counter top used in 99 and changed in 02 to 20 ins above countertop.
I did a custom where H/O`R didn`t want to see a back splash receptacle on his mirrored back splash wall so we stubbed at 54 in all required gfci receps and installed wiremold boves under the upper cabinet on trim i questioned this instak but ahj said it was ok
