I was wondering what the standard hight is to install an electrical outlet box.
I installed the boxes 12" from the floor to the bottom of the box was wondering if that is OK.I should note this is in a basement.
Thank You
Rob

You may check local code for Above Flood.
I do 18" to the center of recepticles, and 48" on switches.
With a 4" box, I mark 16" or 20", and align with the bottom or top of box(more accurate than centering box on a mark.
You may be OK.
