ALL kitchen counter outlets MUST be GFCI protected


No they don't. The one for the fridge *should not* be protected. If
you want to be a stickler about it, use a simplex receptacle for the
fridge to indicate that it's a dedicated outlet.

The 110V outlet behind the stove (it's there in case you want to install
a gas stove) would not need to be protected. Same for an outlet for a
built-in microwave. And that wall outlet way over there on the opposite
wall, by the breakfast area.

Best regards,
Bob
