Legrand Kitchen Countertop Outlet

Legrand has announced the release of its Kitchen Countertop Outlet, delivering a sleek, safe and code-compliant power solution for modern kitchen islands and peninsulas. Developed in response to 2023 NEC Section 210.52(C)(3) updates, which prohibit outlets on the sides of kitchen islands, this innovative device brings power directly to the surface without compromising design or install efficiency. 

Engineered for fast installs, everyday durability and seamless aesthetics, the Kitchen Countertop Outlet features the smallest surface-mounted profile on the market. It takes up 40% less space than traditional pop-up models and includes a simplified connection system with UL 498 certification for safety and performance. It delivers high-performance power access for residential and hospitality spaces and is ideal for contractors, builders, electricians and designers navigating evolving code standards.

Unlike pop-up models that can obstruct workspace or have pop-up related failures over time, Legrand’s Kitchen Countertop Outlet is built for longevity, aesthetic flexibility and jobsite simplicity. Designed to be installed with or without a lid, it’s perfect for new builds, renovations and retrofits in single-family homes, multi-dwelling units (MDUs) and nearly any other space.
