Hi all.
In the process of installing an angled cooker hood above our hob.
At the moment we dont have any wall units either side of the cooker hood but now think it looks a bit bare so i am going to fit some either side.
I would like to have some under cupboard Led lighting but as the kitchen has been plastered and painted the only way i can see of doing this would be to spur off the cooker hood supply cable. Is this ok?
There is a FCU adjacent to the cooker hood chimney at the top of the wall/ceiling. This is the supply for the hood.
I was looking at putting a junction box inside the chimney and running cables to eachwall cupboard but this would mean notching out each side of the chimney at the bottom for cable access. The cable wouldnt be on show.
Does this sound ridiculous??
