Of course the CMP knows what they mean, but you can not get that info from any outside source, it must come from the correct agency.
Our local inspector has a book of proposed changes to the NEC. I don't know what it is called but I'm sure one could find it at NFPA. But, we thumbed through it to try to pick up on some of the intentions of the CMP. There was a proposal to make an exception to the recpt. requirement on a 2' section of wall if that section of wall was buried behind the swing of a door. Then it shows why they rejected the proposal with an explaination.
The reason I bring this up, if anyone has this book, there may have already been a proposal to eliminate that section with a rejection and an explaination directly from the CMP. If so, (and hopefully it is clear enough) that may be enough to satisfy all parties.
