So when you close the door of the walkin, are you still in the kitchen?
Does a 15 amp outlet in a walk in cooler need to be GFI?
If you're in a bedroom closet, are you still in the bedroom? (I say no, by the way.)So when you close the door of the walkin, are you still in the kitchen?
I can't tell whether you're ticked off at her or us. I also can't help but wonder why you don't have an NEC at your disposal.I didn't know if it should be GFI or not so I called my shop.
The only one in was my sectary and told her to long on to MIKE HOLT'S code forum
and hopefully for a quick answer. The response I got was look at 210-.8b
I did not have a code book no the job. I consider this a lame answer why not respond

Okay, "ITS IN THE CODE BOOK" You were given a proper code reference to a question and you complain. You could have asked that someone quote the reference if you needed it..

I would say most likely they want it for heat tape so it needs to be on a Equipment rated GFCI ( breaker) If its for general purpose, a GFCI would nt hurt given the location even if its not concidered the "kitchen" the inspector probably wuold enforce it
