Correct answer to question 4028
- B: Vending machines
Explanation
Vending machines have long been on the NEC list of appliances needing GFCI protection for personnel. The 2020 edition kept this in 422.5(A), and the 2023 edition lists vending machines in 210.8(D). The 2026 retention was not confirmed, so this item is limited to 2020 and 2023.
