Remodeling Wiring for Kitchens and Baths
Kitchens and Bath areas require special electricity wiring for electrical outlets.
The electrical outlet locations are also much different than in other portions of homes.
What are electrical requirements for kitchen and bath areas?
As electrical requirements change frequently be sure to check with your certified local electrician for any special requirements you and questions for your kitchen or bath remodeling. This a summary of a few of the guidelines from the national electrical code a few years back.
In the kitchen area the NEC requires no more than 6 fee from a given location to be from an outlet which would make the outlets no more than 12 feet apart with special outlet locations in the kitchen area or over counter-tops.
Counter-top receptacles in your kitchen must be served by two or more different circuits. Each kitchen counter space that is wider than 12 inches must have its own outlet, with no point along than countertop being more than 24 inches apart horizontally or 48" of space between the outlets in the kitchen.
Often electricians run a three wire 240 volt cable from the service panel and provide two new 120 volt circuits. One side of each receptacle is served by one of the circuits while the other side is served by the other circuit, giving two circuits available at each outlet which gives the term split circuit. Protection for over-current on a split circuit used a double breaker which is linked in the circuit's panel.
Ensuring kitchen and bathroom safety, the NEC requires GFCI protection in all new bathrooms, and in kitchen outlets within six feet of the kitchen's sink and other locations around the house. Adding ground fault protection to existing circuits makes sense in any bathroom or kitchen.
A "ground Fault" is a current leak caused by faulty electrical insulation in a tool or appliance which is plugged in. This current leak may be too small to trip a circuit breaker for your kitchen or bath area, yet can prove fatal to anyone standing on a wet floor or touching a grounded metal plumbing fixture for an example.
There are three GFCI types. One is a circuit breaker installed in the main panel. A second type of GFCI outlet is installed in the outlet box as a replacement for an existing outlet, and there also is a simple plug in GFCI outlet or extension cord. Installing a feed through GFCI outlet is the most common for kitchen and bath areas with more than one outlet. A feed through GFCI allows ground fault protection to all of the receptacles beyond the outlet in the same circuit.
Although adding GFI outlets is very simple step when remodeling kitchen or bathrooms ]people wanting to do work them selves too often make the fatal mistake of missing the minor addition of the correct type of outlet. Be sure to understand this step, or hire an electrician to make sure your kitchen and bathroom areas have the right gauge electrical wiring at the right spacing apart, and at very least ensure your circuits in areas such as Kitchens and baths where moisture can be present is protected with a GFI style of outlet.
We hope this helps as you start your new kitchen planning and kitchen remodel. Please let us know what information you were looking for on our website does not have the content you are looking for so we can be sure to include it in the future - Thank You!

My refrigerator trips the GFI (GFCI)?
It only happened after we connected the copper water line.
The fridge has been in use for 2 months with no problem, until now.
I reconfigured the wiring so that the outlet behind the fridge is not gf(c)i, now it works fine.
I tested the case of the fridge to see if it had any voltage potential and, of course, it doesn't.
I put an ammeter around the copper supply line and couldn't see any current.
Any thoughts on why this happened?
Incidentally, it's an old sub-zero, but new to us.
I neglected to mention that none of the circuits in the place are grounded (old apartment complex), so I added gfci protection in most places.
I will take a guess and will dispel some misinformation also.
There is a good chance that the water pipes are being used as the main grounding means by your service. That is how it used to be done 'back in the day'. You may not even have grounding rods (as is required in most installations today). I'm guessing that when you connected the copper water pipe, you gave the chassis of the fridge a better ground path through the pipe than it had through the receptacle, which was none. Although a GFI receptacle is a code-approved receptacle replacement when no grounding means is available, it still does not provided a ground. Hence the requirement that such a receptacle be labeled as "no equipment ground". This is probably enough to make the GFI believe that there is a problem, although there may not be. The starting of the compressor can also cause nuisance trips of a GFI.
Contrary to other answers, (although it is not a bad idea and I have done it many times myself) there is not a NEC requirement that your fridge be on a dedicated circuit (sorry, but every now and then, someone in this forum makes this claim. I'll admit to getting a little irritated when people take personal opinions or rumors and pass them off as Code. If someone thinks I am wrong, please cite the proper section of the NEC for me.). As long its receptacle is not also serving the kitchen countertop, there is no requirement that it be GFI protected either. You just cannot put a standard grounded receptacle (3-prong) into this location (legally). To do it right, put a non-grounding (2-prong) receptacle in (yes, they can still be found) and use an adapter. This is a short-term solution.
In the long term, you probably should consider having some new circuits added at the very least. Probably should be looking into a re-wire, since your wiring is now at least 50-60yrs old. The insulation, back then, was nowhere near as good as todays and is, very likely, quite degraded.
EDIT:
Although not quite quoted correctly from the NEC itself, I do know of the exception that Kristen is referring to. Unfortunately, the 2008 edition of the NEC removed this exception. It no longer applies.
