Answer:
Hello Alfred,
Thanks for participating. There is not enough information provided in this question to ensure an accurate and correct answer. Please resubmit with more details. Here is some guidance that might help. Section 210.8 of the NEC provides general requirements for ground-fault circuit-inerrupter (GFCI) protection for receptacles in locations and rooms, such as bathrooms. In that case, if a drain located in a room listed in the locations covered in 210.8, then GFCI protection would be required. Please provide more information if you have additional questions.
