Electrical considerations for kitchens and bathrooms

Kitchens and bathrooms have more electrical needs than most rooms. Appliances may need their own circuits, outlets near water need protection, and lighting has to work for specific tasks.

In a kitchen, ranges, dishwashers, microwaves and other appliances each have electrical requirements, and countertop outlets need to be placed where they are useful. In a bathroom, the vanity lighting, exhaust fan and outlets all need planning. GFCI protection detects an imbalance between the current going out and the current returning, and quickly interrupts power to help reduce the risk of electric shock. It can be provided by a GFCI outlet or a GFCI breaker.

Kitchen and bathroom details

  • List the appliances you plan to use, especially new or larger ones.
  • Think about where you use small appliances on the counter.
  • Consider lighting for tasks, such as under-cabinet lights in a kitchen or vanity lights in a bathroom.

Questions

Common questions

Do new kitchen appliances need their own circuits?
Some do. The requirements depend on the specific appliance, which Amper can review.
What is a GFCI outlet?
GFCI protection compares the current going out on a circuit with the current returning. If it detects an imbalance, it quickly interrupts power to help reduce the risk of electric shock. It can be provided by a GFCI outlet or a GFCI breaker.
