During house construction the electrical sub installed an outlet right above the back burner of my gas cooktop in the kitchen. It seems quite dangerous to me to have an outlet so close to the cooktop such that any cord that is plugged in could be easily burned by the flame. I pointed this out to the general contractor (builder), but am having difficulty in persuading him to move it. Doesn't such an installation violate an electrical code besides violating a sanity code?
