Really? I thought I was the only one who kept his shotgun shells next to his running socks.
Hey, at least it was a globed fixture.:thumbup:
NEC 410[D][1] Minimum clearance 12" looks legal but yet aestetically bad.

How is this fixture legal?

The minimum clearance requirments of 410.8(D)(1) require 12" of clearance from the nearest point of storage horizontally to the nearest edge of the fixture not vertically.

Not even close to legal. It is directly over the shelf.

I agree, that was my point. Section 410.8(D)(1) requires 12" of horizontal clearance from the nearest point of storage to the edge of the fixture. I was just responding to obi-wan's post that stated "NEC 410[D][1] Minimum clearance 12" looks legal but yet aestetically bad.". I understood that he thought this installation was legal but just looked bad.
