Quote :
" All electrical cords in your offices or the common areas in our office areas need to be inspected and should be taped to indicate that they have been. There are two categories of equipment with different requirements. Easily portable devices are defined as those which are normally unplugged and connected more than once per week. Cords for these devices must be inspected once per year and should be labeled with orange tape indicated the future date on which the inspection expires. Other devices are classified as not easily portable if they are normally unplugged less than once per week. Cords in this case must be inspected once every 5 years and should be labeled with white tape indicated the future date when the inpsection must be renewed.

It seems most likely that portable heaters fall in this second category of infrequent unplugging along with things like microwaves, refrigerators and copiers. If you have one of these without a 5 year inspection tag dated in the future please get the electrical safety people engaged. Their recommendations on GFIs, other grounding requirements and cord replacements should be followed and then documented by attaching dated white tape.
I hope this is clear now. Be safe.

still unsure of whether or not i need the extra GFI to make it legal, but eh, i'll get it inspected
