If you hang the outlet in the ceiling I would highly recommend a stress relief ?Starch coil thing coil to a rafter or beam so plug Can¡¯t be pulled out of the receptacle as you are rRelying on the shot nub on the plug to hold it there.

Thanks, it actually worked out to install in the traditional method however it¡¯s below the outfeed table and my only concern would be accumulating sawdust but suppose as long as the connections are tight and no arcing occurs shouldn¡¯t be an issue?

No reason not to do it.? I have twist-lock outlets installed in
the ceiling of my current shop and the one I'm working on
building.? The inspector didn't bat an eye about it.? You might
want to put a strain relief on your drop cord, but I've never
bothered and it's never been issue.? It works great for me.

Is there any reason I wouldn¡¯t want to install a twist lock outlet
90 degrees to the wall so the cord goes straight down instead of
out? I don¡¯t think so but thought i would check...
If it matters it is 30a 3p and there is no residential
