ECN Forum Forums Code Related Discussion NEC & other Code issues 220-volt counter top appliance... GFI?

Thanks all.

Nice Scott. I had the 210.8 and was wondering if I was missing something. I did miss the 210.6, I'll have to look at this equipment. I was just surprised to see that it wouldn't be required. I'd never thought about it until this.

Maybe my follow-up is for the nonUS section, but what do the non US 220-volt regions do for countertop kitchen appliances? Do you have device or breaker GFI's?

Then... if it's safe enough for them, why can't I hook it up here if it is less than 1400 watts?
