placed as follows:
(a) Reach Depth Not More an 10 in (255 mm). Where the reach depth to the operable parts of all
controls as measured from the vertical plane perpendicular to the edge of the unobstructed clear oor
space at the farthest protrusion of the automated teller machine or surround is not more than 10 in
(255 mm), the maximum height above the nished oor or grade shall be 54 in (1370 mm).
(b) Reach Depth More an 10 in (255 mm). Where the reach depth to the operable parts of any
control as measured from the vertical plane perpendicular to the edge of the unobstructed clear oor
space at the farthest protrusion of the automated teller machine or surround is more than 10 in
(255 mm), the maximum height above the nished oor or grade shall be as follows:
