there is no regulation about sockets in close proximity to sinks however it
must be suitable for that position. i.e if it is likely to get wet or damp
then it must be of the correct ip rateing. therefore normal sockets should
not be positioned close to sinks where they could get wet.

rule of thumb for ordinary sockets not less than 300mm horizontaly from the
sink.

Any there any regulations about how close electrical sockets can be to
sinks (or how far away they must be) ?
