Hello: I am a DIYer and have specific question on bathroom circuits. I removed a jacuzzi in master bath which was tied to its own individual 20a GFCI breaker in panel box. Same bathroom has two additional circuits: 1 for lights (including ceiling fan) and one for GFCI outlets. I would like to use the 20a GFCI breaker circuit (previously used for jacuzzi which is now gone) for an outlet and light in same bathroom (i.e. have only an outlet and a light on the old jacuzzi 20a GFCI breaker in panel box). Would having a light and outlet tied to this circuit violate elect code? (other two circuits would remain untouched).

Thank you,

I believe you're good.
You can wire switch before the GFI too. Especially if it's in same box.
Be safe.

I think that you would probably have to change the GFCI breaker to a single pole. I’m going to assume that the jacuzzi was 240vac instead of 120vac
