Per 210.8(B) Other Than Dwelling Units.
I have specified GFCI CB's for each circuit the hand dryer is on. The hand dryers require a 20A circuit each, per MFR installation guidance. The restroom I have specified is frequently subject to standing water & flooding. The hand dryers are to be installed within 4 feet of a 2 large multiuser sinks.
In order to save cost the potential customer was told GFCI's were not required. Are there any loopholes to avoid the cost of the ground fault circuit, without incurring liability for this install?
