Are GFI receptacles required inside Insudtraial Mill Buildings? One example is a grinding mill inside a steel structure building that has siding on it. There are various pieces of equipment inside the building (compressors, hydraulic skids, etc..)

I know NEC requires GFI receptacles to be located outdoors but what about inside a building as described?

Why, Is it wet, I'm going to say "NO", it frankly is an "upsale situation"

But

Frankly, I think that it'd be more tripping of this circuit breaker due to the inrush of how the equipment it self works than causing a true GFI fault/trip verses a safely and correclty wired application.
