ECN Forum Forums General Topics of the Trade General Discussion Area GFI Protection

I don't think that anyone here is suggesting that receptacles in Appliance Garages should not be GFCI protected. I was just pointing out that the code itself, because of it's wording, does not seem to require it. As Don had said, it is something that you will probably see corrected in the next code.

I just can't resist!!! We think that we are installing the last permanent appliance in a specific location but in reality things change. I agree according to my view it doesn't require but the what if comes to play. Microwave someday will be replaced with something else then the recp will be un protected..I once drove 200 miles to reset a GFI!!!!
