I have a home that was built in 1995, and I noticed that one of the two kitchen receptacle circuits (both 20A) is not protected by GFIs. It is the one furthest away from the sink. It also supplies the hood and refrigerator. Unfortunately, the fridge is at the end of the circuit, so I will have to put GFIs on the three countertop receptacles to bring it into current compliance. Does anyone know if it was a code violation in 1995 to not have GFI protected receptacles on kitchen counters? I am considering claiming that this is grandfathered in; I will still put in the GFIs, but I want credit for them.
Thanks, Kenny
