Hmmmm, I like it... Though I'm suspicious the interior decorator may have a problem with me drilling holes through the one-piece maple counter-top.

Bjarney. Wouldn't customers love one of these on a granite, marble or tiled counter top? bob

If you don't put the recptacle in the island, the argument by the AHJ becomes "now the homeowner will run a cord to the island which is an even bigger hazard."

I have an island in my kitchen and I just wonder why someone would NOT want an outlet on the island?

Scotts, elecbob points out the only logical reason I can think of... We could always drop some SOW and Daniel Woodheads from the ceiling!

Well the modern kitchen seems to try and replicate commerical kitchens, what with the growing popularity of "heavy duty" kitchen appliances and tools, as well as stainless steel, it's only the next step to have GFCI's hanging on SOW from the ceiling to the island ;P

I guess that I should add the recepticle in my kitchen island is in the side not the top. This may save many problems. Scott
