where to put the socket?

[musicspark]

a client is fitting a cooker beside a floor to ceiling unit. She has left 200mm of worktop space and therefor 200mm of wall at the side of the cooker. she wants a double socket, 45A cooker switch, and a switch for the canopy in this space.

Are there any guidelines for these sort of spaces in kitchens?

The cooker switch could go up to 2m away, nice to keep within easy reach imo, you could use a combined double and single flush box for socket and cooker switch, there are lots of variations on this. The switch for the canopy could go on top of a wall unit and just use canopy controls. There is i think a reccomendation to keep things 300mm away from hobs etc but sometimes not possible. All only imo!

Think you'd have to put them one above the other, limited space there.

Yes I can fit everything in in, but was more concerned about proximity to the hob

no min distance, but they should be at a reasonable distance to avoid heat damage etc
