My 1972 house has not gfci plug in the bathroom. I'm replacing the vanity, and now is the time to fix it. I have one 20 amp circuit that feeds the lights and the plug. I have no more room in my panel for more breakers.
Can I keep the light on the circuit and pigtail off the circuit and hook the 20 amp gfci plug downstream the lights?
NEC 210.11(3) states that at least one 20 amp branch circuit shall be provided and shall have no other outlets. Since the light is upstream and not an outlet am I correct in my reading of the code that such a configuration is allowed, or am I not finding all the facts?
