I will be redoing my kitchen (new cabinets, new appliances, and complete re-wire) and I'm trying to work out the best way of doing switches for built in appliances.
I planning to have three appliances (not including the ovens and hob). These will be a warming draw, vacuum draw and extractor fan. In many ways, three FCU's would be good but they will take up quite a bit of space in a small kitchen and arguably look a bit unsightly. Grid switches are another option although they can get a bit big and unsightly too. Switches going to sockets or FCU's may also be another option.
What do people prefer, or are there better options? I know many people hide them in cupboards, but I like to be able to switch things off quickly if they go wrong. Equally, if a fuse blows, it's nice to not have to pull appliances out etc.
