Question:
Good Morning!
If I install a 120-volt receptacle for a freezer in the garage of a house, is it required to be GFCI protected? Also, do I need a permit and an inspection?

Answer:
Greetings Jose,
Based on the information in your question, GFCI protection would be required to comply with Section 210.8(A)(2). As for the requirements for permits and inspections, we advise checking with the local building safety department in your location. They should be able to assist.
