outlets should be located off to the side of basins, not over top of them

Generated explanation

The illustration shows a bathroom with a pedestal basin, mirror, two wall-mounted electrical receptacles, and a bathtub with shower fittings and a curtain. The receptacles are positioned to either side of the basin rather than directly above it. Dashed vertical lines at the basin edges and outward-pointing arrows emphasize this lateral placement. The annotation states that outlets should be located off to the side of basins, not over them.
