Correct answer to question 4064
- B: Within 2 ft of the outer end
Explanation
The 2020 NEC merged the island and peninsula rules into 210.52(C)(2), where receptacle count depends on countertop area. In addition, a peninsular work surface needs one receptacle located within 2 ft of its outer end. The old rule based on 24 in. by 12 in. dimensions measured from the connecting edge is the 2017 approach.
