What is the 36'' rule ? Does it apply to USA ? I know the 6ft rule.
I thought an outlet had to be located no more than 3 feet from either
side of a door ? Or not ?

There is no placement rule for outlets that specifically mentions
doors. Although I think there is one for light switches
along the primary entry/exit path.
