I have a breakroom in a commercial building, there are 2 receptacles within 6' of a sink and they are on different circuits. The existing configuration has a simplex receptalce. I want to continue to use a simplex receptacle to keep the customers from plugging in more than one kitchen appliance but I know that the NEC requires receptacles within 6' of a sink to be GFCI protected. I was originally going to put in a GFCI breaker at the panel but found out that the neutrals are carrying more than just these circuits. I thought I had seen a combination GFCI-Simplex receptacle in the past but cannot seem to find one now, nor is my distributor able to find one. I would appreciate any help.
