Default Outlet in closet...

OH, now there's a good idea. A space heater in a closet full of clothes.

Is it a bad idea (code or practical) to have an electrical outlet inside
a storage closet?


No problem ... unusual, but nothing in the NEC says not to do it.

In a humid climate, all of our apartment bedroom closets had receptacles,
which were used for heaters to prevent the buildup of mold and mildew.
