GFCI Requirements (TX) within 6 feet of sinks

<but that does mean that a house built in 2007 has to follow 2020 rules?> No. But the inspector didn't say that it had to. He said that he recommends improving it to make the house safer, which seems reasonable. <He also mentioned that "Tamper resistant outlets are not installed. New construction practices adopted in 2008, require the use of tamper resistant outlets on all outlets/plugs. Recommend improving for enhanced safety." I purchased another home in 2023 in the same area (Greater Houston) and it does NOT have tamper resistant outlets.> Seems like a problem with your 2023 house.
