There is a debate about the proper placement for outlets in kitchen islands. Seems like the current kitchen island outlet placement requirements have changed and the island outlets are optional.
Previous side of island outlet locations have proved potentially hazardous.
To address that issue, we have elected to place a pop - up outlet in the top of the kitchen island counter.

From Link 2 Home: About this item
- Easy to install: drill a hole of a diameter 2.4 in. to 2.5 in. with a hole saw, remove the ring and slide the body from top, then screw the ring tight from bottom
- Compact: when concealed, the socket will sink to only 2.9 in. beneath your countertop desk
- Splash resistant: work and cook safely in the knowledge that a splash of water won't cause any damage
- Power where you need it: get access to sockets where and when you need them without having to rely on messy-looking extension cords
- Clean look: fully retractable with a stainless steel finish, the pop-up socket lets you add power in a sophisticated and unobtrusive way
This way kids are less likely to pull on cords and potentially pull off crock pots or similar items and get hurt in the process. if you are interested in how we installed the outlet in the countertop, stay tuned to our solution.
