    Hi,

    i'm currently digging out the channels for the electric cables in my kitchen

    I'm not sure where I can position the socket for the cooker hood...

    I was going to put it above the hood bit next to the chimney, with this being stainless steel (to match the hood, other sockets will be white) but thought it would be better if the socket isn't on show.

    Can it go inside the chimney? Or is that space taken up with the ducting? I don't have the cooker hood yet

    I need a fused spur for the cooker, do I also need one for the cooker hood?

    If so I figure this can sit next to the cooker spur (which is below the cooker hood)

    thank you

    mines inside the hood so yeah
