Underfloor Installations

1. Q. In a commercial structure, for example a high tech facility, can one install receptacles under the floor, or must they be above the floor? Why?

A. If the room meets the requirements of NFPA 75, even if the room is technically not a "computer room," then receptacles may be installed beneath the floor.
(Tri-County Electrical Code Forum, November 15, 2001)
