Welcome to the forum.

Here is the NEC definitions of wet and damp locations

Location, Wet. Installations underground or in concrete slabs or masonry in direct contact with the earth; in locations subject to saturation with water or other liquids, such as vehicle washing areas; and in unprotected locations exposed to weather.

Location, Damp. Locations protected from weather and not subject to saturation with water or other liquids but subject to moderate degrees of moisture. Examples of such locations include partially protected locations under canopies, marquees, roofed open porches, and like locations, and interior locations subject to moderate degrees of moisture, such as some basements, some barns, and some cold-storage warehouses.

If you mean the utility room of a dwelling, such as where the washer and dryer would be.......neither damp or wet.

And yes, welcome to the forum!

no, it is not a damp or wet loc. if it is inside the house, ie, finished room area. otherwise, basement utility rooms or breezeway-type rooms may be.
