Dennis,

CMP 2 has accepted a proposal to GFCI protect ALL 125 volt 15 and 20 ampere receptacles in a laundry area including those behind a washer that are not readily accessible.





Chris

Why would they need to include "not readily accessible" if "ALL" are required in the laundry?

The not readily accessible was my wording not the CMP's. I was just pointing out that the CMP is expanding GFCI rules to include many receptacles that are not easy to reach.

And this exception does not apply if within 6' of a sink correct?

Exception to (5): A receptacle supplying only a permanently
installed fire alarm or burglar alarm system shall
not be required to have ground-fault circuit-interrupter
protection.
