Why do kitchen electrics need special consideration?

We all know that electricity and water have a disorderly relationship, this is why special consideration is due where kitchen electrics are concerned. As there are electrical appliances in use and the presence of water, there is a greater risk of electrocution.

Due to the large number of appliances plugged in, there is also a greater need for more outlets which need careful placement. We strongly recommend you avoid using multiplugs or extension cables in high risk rooms such as the kitchen.

There is a greater demand for power on kitchen appliances, especially larger gadgets such as ovens, dishwashers and refrigerators, often requiring a separate circuit to prevent overloading a single circuit.

Building regulations also state that any outlets close to water sources such as the sink are GFCI or ground fault circuit interrupter outlets, designed to immediately shut off power should a ground fault occur.
