I am doing a complete bathroom renovation. I wish to install two GFI
receptacles in a double box. The incomming wire is always hot and
goes no further than the box in question. As there is already one
existing GFI recptacle in place i can see how its wired. can i just
pigtale its white and the new ones white to the incomming white and
pigtale the current black and the new black to the incomming black
and common the grounds



Yes or you can do as Peter suggested to save a little on the cost of an
additional GFI. Put your pigtail wires from the second receptacle into
the LOAD terminals on the first GFI. That will make the second receptacle
GFI protected. The current code calls for a separate 20 amp circuit for
the bathroom.

This is excellent advice but you will need to use the decora style duplex so
that you can find a 2 gang cover to fit.
