California Title 24 requirements

[melissas1]

Does California Title 24, or any other applicable code, require the light and the exhaust fan to be switched separately for a bathroom ceiling unit? Would this bathroom ceiling unit light be required to be controlled by a dimmer? And, finally, would AFCI protection be required if installing a new bathroom ceiling fan/light unit required extending a lighting circuit?

The electrical code does not require that. There might be something in the energy code.

Would this bathroom ceiling unit light be required to be controlled by a dimmer?

I very much doubt that.

And, finally, would AFCI protection be required if installing a new bathroom ceiling fan/light unit required extending a lighting circuit?

If it's extended 6ft or more then yes.

Barhrooms do not require AFCI protection.
