Can I legally install a washing machine in my bathroom?
Anonymous user 08/10/2025 - 2:02 PM
Hello, I'm thinking about installing a washing machine in my bathroom. The plan is to run the power cable through a small hole in the wall to an outlet that's on the other side of the bathroom. The machine will be more than 1.2 metres from the edge of the tub and about half a metre from the toilet. Just wondering if this setup is up to code?
Are you a pro and able to answer this question?

Yes . You can ask an electrician to do this. As your toilet has a water valve and its half meter far from your plug, Electrician will use a GFI Plug for following CEC.
