Receptacle placement in Office building

[Designer69]

The NEC has requirements for dwelling units, what about an office building any special requirements there or place them where you please?


Thanks

For a dwelling unit, the recp loads are included in the 3VA/SQ F calulation. For an office building, each recp is counted at 180VA. There are only a few non dwelling unit recpts required, one that comes to mind is for the service area.

210.71 if you are on the 2017 NEC and the office building has meeting rooms.

That plus there is also 210.62, .63 and .64 that may apply.
