Discuss Code for a socket next to a salon style sink with moveable shower hose in the Periodic Inspection Reporting & Certification area at ElectriciansForums.net

That I would state as C2 and explain clearly why I applied that code.
My immediate is C3 from the engineering standpoint but I can see reasoning behind a C2 however, looking at utilisation (ordinary persons (operators/apprentices) and the whole range for thr customer base (BA off the top of my head)) and the high probability of indirect splashing from the shower/basin I would recommend IP sockets or moving them to a higher level or just having no sockets in yht immediate area (cordless clippers exist and I'm sure cordless hairdryers/straighteners aren't far off)
