GFCI At Wet Locations
1m 13s
GFCI receptacles are within 6 feet of every wet location. In the ASC setting they are in Operating Rooms, Clean and Soiled rooms, Janitors closet, Bathroom and any other area where there is a sink within 6 feet. In operating rooms if you are performing what is considered a wet procedure you must have GFCI outlets in the OR. (Please remember do not put a sink in your operating room). GFCI are tested on an annual basis for grounding, retention and sensitivity. Testing results of each receptacle must be documented.
