NEC 2014 receptacle sharing shower wall

[ZolJer]

Can there be a receptacle on the same wall as a shower? Of course not in the shower.

See picture, box opening is facing bedroom.

Using NEC 2014.

Thanks for any and all help.

Not an issue at all. It is compliant

No issue if the box is large enough.

If it does become an 'issue', you've got bigger problems that NEC compliance.....

I agree, this question does come up quite often.

Seems like 'water and electricity don't mix' is gospel. Despite there being whirlpools, electric water heaters, well pumps, washing machines, garbage disposals, refrigerator ice-makers, hot tubs, electric pressure washers, dishwashers......

Yeah, take that stupid box and throw it as far as you can!
