Question:
Dear Code Question of the Day,
Just failed an inspection on a new home in Cobb Co. GA . How does 410.16 apply to a Plan specified linen closet with multiple shelves and no closet rod ? We used a flush mount led fixture on the ceiling .

Answer:
The required clearances for closets apply to clothes closets as defined in 410.2 and as indicated in Section 410.16. You might be wise to check with the local authority having jurisdiction for any local electrical code requirements that would supplement or amend the minimum requirements in the NEC.
