Correct answer to question 4026
- B: No, it is not covered by the 2020 kitchen or sink items
Explanation
In the 2020 NEC the kitchen item applied only to receptacles serving the countertop, and the sink item only within 6 ft. Electric ranges were not yet on a GFCI appliance list, so this receptacle was not required to be GFCI protected.
