    Receptacle Height in Basement

    Hi all, I am working on finishing my basement (Location: Pleasant Valley, NY) and was trying to find the code that states what the height of the outlet receptacle should be. I wasn't sure if this was a general code, or a specific basement code. Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks, Brian

    Is arc-fault AFCI protection required?

    If a homeowner wants to add duplex receptacles to an existing circuit that under today's code would require AFCI protection, would you required the new receptacles that are being added to be AFCI protected since they are new and an extension of the existing circuit?
