Yeah, I was going to do that anyway. I just wanted to know if there was anything in the regs that limited how close to the ceiling a socket could be.
Anyway, I've had another thought. I could have the cable exit the wall and just have the socket surface mounted on the top of the cabinet.

As the socket will be concealed it can be on a surface mounted box on the wall. This might help location if its on a stud partition.
(just noticed you beat me to it)

Hi again,
I would just like to thank everyone who helped out here with advice and ideas. The electrician has been today and wired up the new kitchen ring main and tested etc. He also moved some existing circuits from an old Wylex fuse wire type board up to the newer consumer unit which was fitted eight years ago when we had an extension built.
So now all the house circuits are on the one consumer unit and everything has been tested and we have a seperate ring main in the kitchen. So I am very happy indeed.
Thanks again all
