2014 code for dishwasher and disposal

[kwired]

Did I miss part of the thread title that must have said what is the most expensive and convoluted way to wire this ? Hardwire the dish then it won't need a friend or gfci. Don't use a mwbc

As mentioned, it still needs GFCI. I agree with you on missing the part about it must be done the most expensive way possible. Only people that are not subject to the new rules are the same people that were not following the old rules, there is generally more than one way to meet the requirements, each installation will have different circumstances that may make you do it different also.

Remember that (unless it changed in 2014) GFCI's must now be "readily accessible" so putting a GFCI under a sink is subject to interpretation of "readily accessible".

What is the wording for the new gfci requirements? Interesting it's expanded beyond 120 v receps

I don't know for certain. I personally don't think GFCI is necessary for a hardwired unit, but they never asked for my opinion. I can understand the potential need for GFCI on a cord and plug connected unit.
