Q: "Would it violate code to add the new 120V outlet for the
washer to the existing 15A GFCI circuit in the bathroom? (As long as I
don't plug in a hair dryer at the same time) "

A: 2002 NEC, CH7, subpart (d) pp. 6, para. 2: It shall be allowed that
anyone may connect whatever additional devices they wish to an existing
GFCI circuit; provided that (a) the GFCI circuit is in a bathroom, and
(b) the GFCI circuits is rated at 15 amperes. This shall be allowed
only if a hairdryer is not plugged into the existing circuit.
Looks like you are in luck.


Thanks for the reference! LOL
