Mounting Heights
Mounting heights of electrical devices are influenced by and must be
closely coordinated with the architectural design. However, there are
industry standard practices followed by architects as well as code and
legal requirements, such as Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
guidelines. The following recommended mounting heights for electrical
devices provide a good guideline in the absence of any specific infor-
mation and are ADA compliant.
