What is the recommended method for running electric cables behind kitchen base units? The OSG covers cables sunk into the wall in plenty of detail and safe zones in this respect but not clipped direct.
Reason I ask is we have one wall brick & plaster and the other wall stud & packed with insulation. In order to avoid de-rating the cable too much, the ideal route would be to clip the cables horizontally to the walls behind the base units just above floor level where they can supply unswitched sockets before running vertically to sockets/appliance switches etc above the worktop.
