    Kitchen Electrical - Gas Range with Electronic Pilot
    Hello,

    Can anyone tell me if there are any limitations to where I can place the outlet for a gas range with electronic pilot. I want to place it behind the range.. Does it have to be a certain distance from the gas line? Can it be on one of the two kitchen circuits or does it need its own?

    Thanks very much

    Carly,
    There are no requirements in the electrical code that require any separation and yes, you may connect this to any available receptacle circuit in your kitchen.
