Outdoor kitchen guides

What electrics does an outdoor kitchen need?

Outdoor electrics have different safety requirements to indoor ones, and need planning in properly rather than treating as an afterthought.

Outdoor-rated sockets and fittings are essential, providing power for fridges, blenders or additional appliances, and lighting extends the space's usability into the evening.

Part P compliance

All outdoor electrical work should be carried out or certified to Part P requirements by a competent, registered electrician, given the additional safety considerations of an outdoor environment.
