210.52(D) of the 2011 NEC requires that at least one receptacle be installed within 3 feet of a sink.
Once this receptacle is installed can more receptacles be installed around the walls on a 15 amp circuit as long as they are GFCI protected?
Looking at 210.11©(3) it makes no mention of 15 amp circuits and clearly states that at least one 20 amp circuit be installed to supply bathroom receptacle outlet(s) which means more than one.
It does not specify that this circuit is only for the receptacle outlined in 210.52(D) such as in 210.11©(1) for those receptacles outlined in 210.52(B) and 210.11©(2) for receptacles outlined in 210.52(F).
