Enclosed are some pics from a hotel room I stayed at recently where a jacuzzi tub had been added to the room. Existing recepts were left in place approx 2ft from the tub...

Just a reminder that the clearance is measured from the inside wall of the tub- an not the edge of whatever is holding the wall up.

How was the jacuzzi, anyway? :-)

I don't see a violation. The receptacles are not allowed within the tub space. Those are not.

you're right Scott
I was more interested in making a joke than actually "looking" at the picture
