Focus on the Code Questions for CMP-2
The Focus on the Code column is intended to assist our readers and members in understanding the requirements of the National Electrical Code. Our Code consultants consists of IAEI representatives on the CMP-2 panels of the NEC and other selected experts. 


Question 1. I have a question regarding Section 210.52(B)(2) Exception No. 2: “receptacles installed to provide power for supplemental equipment and lighting on gas-fired ranges, ovens, or counter-mounted cooking units.

I would like clarification of supplemental equipment; would this also include range hoods? — R.H.

Answer 1. The answer to the question is no. The range hood is a standalone appliance and is therefore not supplemental. An igniter for a gas-fired range light built into a stove unit, or an internal clock would be considered as supplemental equipment. — Raymond W. Weber, CMP-2
