Re: gfci

210.8(B) requires GFCI protected receptacle outlets for (1) Bathrooms, (2) Rooftops, and (3) Kitchens. Where do you get the requirements for other receptacle outlets?

Re: gfci

unless it is a single device for a specific piece of equipment?? Permanent location for a temp. sump pump? Other wise I don't think there is any reason not to put a gfi in, safety first!

The question is "are gfci required . . ." I agree with your statement but I was answering the question as asked.

Re: gfci

GFCI's are not required for outside commerical building receptacles, but a bubble cover is required.
Washington State will require this when our new state rules are adopted in a few weeks.
