After reviewing the NEC 210.8 I have a couple of questions regarding the installation of GFCI outlets.

1) Can a GFCI outlet installed in the kitchen above the countertop, be on the same circuit feeding other non-GFCI outlets in other rooms of an apartment? (i.e. 2 GFCI outlets in the kitchen, and 3 non-GFCI outlets in the living room)

2) Can a GFCI oulet installed outside be on the same circuit as kitchen lighting, and living room non-GFCI outlets?

Thanks for any help on the topic :confused:

No. See 210.52(B)(2)

Depends on when and what code cycle was in place when the original installation was done and I misread the question :)
