Correct answer to question 7013
- D: Not within a zone 3 ft horizontally and 8 ft vertically from the tub rim or shower threshold

Section 406.9(C) keeps receptacles out of the space 3 ft horizontally and 8 ft vertically from the top of the bathtub rim or shower stall threshold. GFCI protection does not remove this restriction.
