Re: Magnetic Lock

Ether,
Your proposal is still difficult to rule on without seeing it during inspection and/or through a series of tests of the various rules under which it's use might be covered. The Q&A cites specifically R02 and R03 but I don't see anything in those rules that might apply. It would still need to be fed with a spike (if less than 20 amps) or speed controller, an appropriate sized breaker through the PD and be used with appropriately sized wire for the current it uses during operation.
