how far from water (sinks) do panels need to be?

[RKyleM]

i am putting a panel in a commercial kitchen. ironically, this wall space also has a hand dishwashing line on it. how far do i need to be away from the washing line? i don't think the NEC addresses this but do other codes?

thanks!

NEC Table 110.26.(A).(1) condition 2 says 3.5 ft. minimum in any direction. You might want to consider it in a wet location, so Section 312.2.(A) should be taken into consideration. You may want to consider a NEMA 4 enclosure which is protection against splashing water or hose directed water.

Clarification: Strike out "in any direction". Also the 3.5 ft. is measured from the front of the panel.
