 Right. I think a GFCI outlet on anything within reach of the sink (direct ground) is probably a good idea in the kitchen, but design can prevent the most egregious risks. Fully agree with the outlet placement of GFCI too. Apparently you know a bit about the important things! 😊 I usually use Siemens breakers and boxes, but I think they’re fairly similar to SquareD. Growing up we had an old fridge and if you touched it and the sink at the same time it would make your joints rattle a bit. 😬 Much has changed since those days though. I doubt most fridges even have conductive handles or body panels anymore.
