bath room circuits in a resi dwelling

[bob sztuk]

the code states 1 -20 amp circuit as a bathroom circuit. can you use 1 circuit for 2 bathrooms in a apartment or condo? The exception states multiple outlets in 1 bathroom off 1 circuit. Does the code allow you to feed bathroom 2 from bathroom 1?

You can only feed the receptacles from one bathroom to the other. Nothing else.

You can pick one of two ways.All bathroom receptacles on 1 20 amp circuit with no lights or other outlets.Or a dedicated 20 amp circuit for each bathroom and they then could include everything in just that 1 bathroom.

The rule does apply to apartments and to condos. Both count as "dwelling units."
