Would anyone care to assist me in this quest for knowledge? Does the code specifically address the two areas; laundry "folding counter" and "wet bar" as far as required receptacles and or spacing?

Got that. If present must be protected. Do you know of any requirement to have any? I have a wet bar in a new house that I put a sw/recpt combo on the right side of the counter. Approx 5 feet. I put in a gfci recpt. then in retrospect began to be concerned I may should have added another liken to the kitchen 24" rule.

There are no counter top receptacle requirements for wet bars or laundry rooms.
