Is it legal to have an electrical outlet in a wall cavity?
The term "wall cavity" usually refers to the space between studs. Outlet boxes are usually fastened to one side of a stud or the other. Sometimes they are fastened to a crossbar, whether metal or wood, so they can be placed anywhere within the space. There are height limitations in order to count as required outlets but may be placed anywhere you need one. They are called convenience outlets and my friends often hear me say that if one isn't convenient, there aren't enough. If by "wall cavity" you mean a completely walled off portion of a building with no access, something that sometimes happens in commercial buildings, then no, it is not legal. You must have access to any splices in the circuit, which includes end of the line.
Does 15amp outdoor circuit need gfi?
ALL outdoor circuits and all 115v circuits in a bathroom, kitchen or garage should be protected by a GFIC. If you have any doubt, contact your local building inspector.GFIC outlets are relatively inexpensive and can be wired into the first circuit of a string of outdoor outlets. The expense is reasonable and the protection is well worth the investment.
Can the outlets in a circuit be arranged in different groupings to obtain the same resultwhy?
For a good answer you need to tell us what you mean by grouping. It comes to my mind that you may mean can you put outlets in the same room, or different rooms, on the same or different circuits to accomplish a certain purpose of sharing or not sharing a circuit. The answer is yes. You may group them or intermix them in any manner you wish, with the exception of kitchen, dining room, pantry, laundry, and/or bathroom outlets. These have special requirements. If this doesn't answer your question, please provide more information.
