Protection - Flush-Mounted 230V Socket Box for Inside Kitchen Cabinet with Space Limitations

Question

Hello. I need to drill one additional 230V socket in the side of the kitchen cabinet. Due to the fact that I do not have too much space, I cannot install a surface-mounted socket (they protrude strongly from the wall of the cabinet) - so I will have to drill a hole in the cabinet and insert a...

I mainly care about the aesthetics so that a woman does not eat me for disfiguring the cabinet ... at the beginning I thought about an ordinary flush-mounted box for the KG board, but they are not very attractive visually. As there are no such special boxes, for the cabinets, I will probably use an ordinary installation with a screw cover for screws (through the original screw holes I will catch it with screws to the cabinet board).

Buddy, safety is paramount! You don't want a woman to leave this world when you put plates or glasses in there? The can is designed to exclude the possibility of accidentally putting fingers or a spoon there.

You are wrong, installations made in furniture they are normal ! The method of their implementation is regulated by the PN-IEC 60364-7-713: 2005 standard Electrical installations in construction works - Requirements for special installations or locations - Furniture.

I'm very sorry. I was sure that furniture installations are low-voltage installations. However, I will remain here that fixing the cans to the k / g board in holes in the furniture board and covering it with cans or combined housings is wire-making. If the standard allows for installation in furniture, does any of the manufacturers offer typical solutions for furniture (I do not mean lamps or under-cupboard sockets, only installation systems), or do you have to use typical surface-mounted accessories?

Eg PDD 60 can. See post # 4.
Standard furniture installations are bedside installations in hotel rooms. There, no one is playing in forging walls, all wiring is carried out inside the bed, with the outputs for lamps and sockets in the combined bedside cabinets. External fittings are typical.
