hi all - i'm building a plan to remodel a small kitchen in an old house, giving me the opportunity to add brand new electrical in this space. my question to you guys is with regard to recessed outlets/recessed receptacles. does anyone use these in order to provide power to kitchen appliances? specifically, for example - the gas range/oven: instead of installing an outlet in the back of an adjacent base cabinet, can i install a recessed outlet right behind the oven? the goal is to have it flush against the wall. same question for dishwasher, assuming i don't hard wire to a house line. thanks!

I am having a ground loop with some electronic equipment because of running off two circuits. Not getting into the details of that (I have tried a lot of solutions and continuing to troubleshoot), one last ditch solution may be re doing the grounds for the two circuits, but I am not sure if this allowed by code (or a good idea in general). So here is the setup I am thinking about trying: 1. 20amp line to the room , 12/2 , one socket 2. 15mp line to the room, 14/2 , tons of sockets, lights, etc 3. Put both breakers on the same side of the main panel to keep in same phase 4. Now this is the part I am not sure about, can I run the ground from the 20amp socket to a 15amp socket (4inches away) and tie them together. Once they are tied, disconnect the 15amp ground from the main panel and only utilize the 20amp ground? I read something similiar to this when running multiple lines in a conduit but utilizing one ground. The only restriction was that the largest ground line be used. Overall this seems sketchy to me, but it would create a single ground for both circuits and hopefully remove the ground loop issue I am having. Be gentle :o
