| Mar 17, 2021 at 23:33 | comment | added | Air | @SteveSh I'd had that thought. It would certainly make the range easy. Not as sure about outlets, I haven't done an island with outlets before; and of course I'd love to save that inch if it's all the same. | |

A boxed chase or gutter is another option or flex attached to the back of a cabinet it all depends on how the cabinetry is built and if drawers, cabinets have usable space. | |
| Mar 17, 2021 at 23:24 | comment | added | ThreePhaseEel | Are there going to be upper cabinets over this peninsula, or will it be open to the ceiling? Is visible conduit or raceway on the exposed endwalls of the cabinetry an option? | |
| Mar 17, 2021 at 23:23 | comment | added | SteveSh | What ii you pull the 12" deep cabinets out a bit, say 1/2" to 1". Then run your electric between the two sets of cabinets. I assume the counter top is going to be custom fit anyway, so 37" vs 36" (plus the overhang) for the depth should not be a problem. | |
