kitchen sink taps
is it dangerous when redesigning a kitchen to locate plug sockets near a sink, taps?
im in a state of agitation presently about this, i live in an apartment that is having to kitchens fitted and bathrooms, they have torn the old kitchen out and put in a new kitchen, but i have noticed they have located to plug sockets within arms length of the kitchen sink and water taps.
i was told by an electrical helpline that this is unsafe and could cause a fire explosion , is this true ?
the work is not yet completed in my apartment and the helpline advised that i might have to kick up a fuss about it as it is very unsafe...- that he couldn't understand why the plug sockets have been put that near to the sink where the water taps are.
i live in an apartment complex that is having kitchen and bathrooms refurbished , i had no choice in the matter , i live on disability because of psychological struggles, so i had to go along with the housing refurbishment plan.
does anyone have advice on what to do about this ?
im in the uk at present.
Ok - but what part of the world are you in - different countries have different regulations.
In the UK I am pretty sure that being at arms length will be fine - fitting directly above or below would be a no-no....
Don't be taken in too much by these helplines - if the electricans are proper dudes - they will not even consider fitting them illegally - they have tough regulations to follow now and if they breach those guidelines - the penalties are severe
