It is my understanding that there is a NEC regulation for automobile lifts that states that any lighting system must power off within 18" of the ground. Where do I find this NEC regulation to review and what is the NEC reg number?

Sure, make him do his own research TK. Here is a little help.

I think you will find it is not about the lift or lights at all but is about the classification of the area they are located in.

Sure why not?

I gave the information that was requested.

This,apparently, is a commercial garage, and there are several issues with wiring this type of occupancy, the poster may as well learn everything there is to know about commercial garages.

I call it the way I see it with the information given. I don't read between the lines, I answer the question.
