I did a rental inspection recently on a home that was a complete remodel with building permit and noted that there are baseboard heaters in the bathroom located withing 6" from the edge of the shower pan. I am looking for information to guide me as to whether or not this could be considered a wet/damp location and use NEC Code 424.12 (b) to require documentation of being approved for a damp/wet location, as a lighting fixture within the Restricted Zone demonstrated in Exhibit 410.1and specified in 410.4 (A) would require.
However, I'm not sure that I can qualify it as a damp/wet location by the definition alone. Is there any other code that could support this?
Thanks.
