Where Should Electrical Sockets Go in a New Kitchen?

Planning electrical sockets early can make a new kitchen safer and more practical. Socket positions should reflect the final layout, including worktops, appliances and how the kitchen will be used every day. Convenient sockets are often needed above worktops for small appliances, while dedicated connections may be required for ovens, hobs, dishwashers, refrigerators and other equipment. Consider additional sockets around kitchen islands and areas used for charging devices. Positioning must also account for sinks, heat sources and current electrical safety requirements.
