I would like to know how the majority interprets the code requirements for outlet(s) at bathroom sinks (basins). From memory, I believe it is 210-52(d) which says there must be one outlet within 36" of each basin. About 3/4 of the electricians say each basin (sink) has to have it's own outlet (i.e., 3 basins, 3 outlets). The municipality chief electrical inspector says that the code reads very clearly that you can use one duplex outlet for a vanity with 2 sinks as long as it's within 36" of each sink (mounted in the center between the sinks). We are not under the muni's requirements but I tend to agree with the muni electrical inspector. Would like some feedback on this.
