The NEC doesn't require "finished" areas to meet any particular outlet
spacing. It requires "habitable" rooms to meet these outlet requirements.
Regardless of how he may plan to use the room, if it doesn't meet the
criteria for "habitable" which sometimes requires specific ceiling heights,
and multiple methods of egress, this can just be a glorified storage space
with however many outlets he feels like installing

Know a lot of people who put five receptacles and half a dozen pot
lights into a storage space??

Get a life, you nit-picking a***.


"nits don't grow on trees!". I'm not sure exactly what that means, but
it sure sounds relevant.
