Dedicated Laundry Circuit

Can the laundry light and fan be put on the laundry circuit?

210.11©(2) Laundry Branch Circuits. In addition to the number

of branch circuits required by other parts of this section, at

least one additional 20-ampere branch circuit shall be pro-

vided to supply the laundry receptacle outlet(s) required by

210.52(F). This circuit shall have no other outlets.

"supply the laundry receptacle outlet(s) required by

210.52(F). This circuit shall have no other outlets."

It specifically calls out receptacle outlets, fan and lights are outlets, but not receptacle, so I so no go.

I agree. Other receptacles outlets are allowed but not lighting or fan outlets-- 210.52(F) references receptacle outlets

If the light and fan circuit remain in the Laundry ONLY, then yes,

they can be on the same circuit......I have never seen a fan in

a Laundry, and I am assuming that Jeff meant a Bathroom fan

connected on the same circuit, which would be a definite "no no" !

Not at all, I specifically meant fan and or light.
