I do not follow you.

No bollards the raceway is subject to physical damage, and you must use 80 or metal.

Put bollards in front of raceway and now the raceway is not subject to physical damage. It is not 'still' exposed to physical damage.

90.4 does not enter into this.

Bollards are often used to protect electrical equipment from physical damage.

If I had a raceway that was exposed to physical damage and then I built a wall around it would you still say it was exposed to physical damage just because it used to be exposed to damage?

The bollards do the same thing, assuming they are placed correctly and that would be up to the inspectors discretion.

At least that is how I see it. [Linked Image]
