Hello - I am having a new kitchen fitted, and it has a 2.5x1m island with 180mm plinths.
At the end of the island the room extends into a dining room, and it would be really handy to have an electrical socket in the island plinth to power a laptop if someone is sitting at the dining room table which is in the center of the room (in line with the island).
I've been told that this isn't possible due to regulations - is this true? Is there any way to have discreet power at floor level without having to look at an ugly plug? E.g. can it be islolated in some way - or is it not a problem and someone is being over cautious?
Any tips greatly appreciated.
