Perfect for inspectors, electricians, and DIYers who just want a clean, code-accurate cheat sheet.
Ever fail a laundry inspection because of a GFCI or AFCI issue? Here’s how to fix it.
This short explains the real 2023 NEC requirements for laundry areas—covering both 210.8(A) and 210.8(D) for washers and dryers, and 210.12(B) for AFCI protection.
You’ll learn:
• Why dryers and washers must now have GFCI protection—even when hardwired
• The 10-amp update for AFCI circuits and how it applies
• The difference between Combination Type AFCI and Dual Function (AFCI/GFCI) breakers
• What “series” and “parallel” arc faults actually mean
• Why your 240V dryer circuit still qualifies (120V each leg to ground)
• The most common red-tag mistakes inspectors flag in laundry rooms
