I followed the '6 ft' rule when I built and addition and rehabbed the
entire house. Nowhere near enough.


I misunderstood the 6' rule and did my first house with outlets no
more than 6' apart. Best misunderstanding I ever had.

When we had to rebuild a house a few years back I swear the inspector was
looking for them every six feet.

I know for a fact the electrician had to come back and add one to satisfy
the inspector. The 14 x 14 rooms have 2 on each wall.

I would not want any less. If I build again that will be my specs whether
it is code or not.
