You don't consider lighting outlets as "other outlets"?


I don't consider a light *fixture* (e.g. a ceiling light) as an outlet, and
neither does the Code.

The NEC prohibits installing lights on kitchen outlet circuits, other than

I don't think that's correct -- do you have a Code cite for it? I see
where
the Code prohibits other *outlets* on those circuits (e.g. in other
rooms),
but I don't see a prohibition against lighting.
