He took me recently for minor renovation works, including corrections after "specialists on recommendation". One of their many electrical and construction feats was to make a socket in a cabinet (storage space) made of plywood, but they did it by cutting an irregular hole in the plywood and inserting a loosely hanging and protruding wall outlet.
I wanted the socket there because I keep the router and home file server there, so I don't want to close it, just do it properly. Only is it possible to properly implement an electrical outlet in such a place?
I was thinking of putting a regular wall outlet in there, but I don't know if it can be safely mounted on plywood. Alternatively, I can get rid of the whole wall and mount directly on the wall (I would prefer not, because the cabinet is at the height of the riser and probably full near the cables laid) or as a last resort make a socket outside the cabinet and carry the extension cord inside, but I would prefer to hide as much as possible.
