I seem to remember a requirement that 277V fixtures be mounted at least 8' A.F.F. but I can not find this in the 2002 code. Does anyone remember this? Was it an old requirement??
Also, while looking I came across the requirement that 277V fixtures be 3' from doors, windows, handrails etc. Does anybody know the intent here. Would having the fixtures within 3' of non-operable windows be ok. Is the idea to keep them away from metal objects that could create a path to ground or to keep them away from people all together. If the latter, then why not mandate the minimum mounting height?
