Pop-up sockets and recessed power modules
Some fittings use a circular opening; others need a rectangular cutout with specified corners and fixing clearances. Send the exact product code and cutout template. The faceplate dimensions are not the same as the opening size, and the socket body must fit below the stone.
Position agreed with your electrician
Ask your electrician to confirm the proposed location and the product’s suitability before stone cutting is booked. Proximity to a sink, water exposure, cable routing and access all affect the installation. The stone cutting service does not include electrical advice, wiring or certification.
Allow room inside the cabinet
A pop-up unit extends below the benchtop and can conflict with drawers, runners, shelves or appliances. Include an underside photo and the unit’s installation depth, fixing method and cable requirements. We also review stone joins, nearby openings, edge distances and support.
Stone splashbacks and existing openings
If your power point needs to sit in a stone splashback, send a wide photo, a close-up and the electrician’s required opening. Wall access, hidden services, stone support and tool clearance need assessment. Existing openings can be considered for modification where the product and stone allow it.

This service covers agreed stone cutting and finishing. Arrange the electrical installation and any required certification with a licensed electrician.
