I am fairly certain that this subject was discussed before, BUT.
I am working on a single family residential plan that the "architect" is calling for receptacles in the bedroom (that are within 6 feet of the bath vanity) to have GFCI protection, even those that are positioned behind the door that swing outward into the bedroom. Yes, they do indicate a receptacle at the vanity. Yes, you could plug something into the bedroom receptacle (with the door open) and have the item sitting on the vanity.
Could someone direct me to this previous discussion? Also what does the NEC say about this?
This house will be built in the county, where no inspection is required, so therefore there is no "AHJ" to ask their opinion about this. The "State" does have the right to send out inspection upon "special" request.
Thanks.
