The outlet is located and part of the cover plate is buried behind the range. Plug is barely accessible. Does NEC allow this?
Receptacle located next to stove range

You're allowed to have a receptacle behind the stove and one on the counter so why not split it? My house I would move it. You could rewire, or blank it off maybe not a violation if it's an existing install. New install you'll need at least 2 receptacles for the mandatory 2 circuits.
