What You Will Learn
Today’s kitchens serve as far more than cooking spaces, they’re the heartbeat of the home. From remote work and homework stations to entertainment zones and charging hubs, the demand for better-integrated electrical solutions has never been higher.
In this webinar, we’ll explore how to power modern kitchens with intention and design in mind, addressing not only convenience and code compliance, but also aesthetics and performance. Attendees will gain practical knowledge on how to optimize outlet placement, select future-ready solutions, and seamlessly integrate power access into high-use zones like islands, backsplashes, and appliance walls.
We’ll take a closer look at in-wall USB-C outlets that support laptop charging, UL-listed countertop-mounted solutions engineered for NEC 210.52(C)(3), and design-friendly systems that meet both style and spec. If you’ve ever struggled to balance client expectations with code requirements, this session offers actionable strategies for achieving both, while differentiating your services and unlocking new value for clients.
Learning Objectives:
- Learn how to optimize outlet placement for kitchen islands and countertops while simultaneously adhering to code and design vision.
- Understand how to evaluate USB-C outlets based on power delivery, safety, and device compatibility.
- Discover how to use modern power accessories (like modular wall plates and 65W USB outlets) to enhance both function and finish in today’s kitchen projects.
