I've searched around for the answer to this but haven't found it as
yet: is there any regulation concerning placing a small wall-mounted
12V TV set in a kitchen?

I have a blank area above a draining board, partly protected from
splashes and steam by a 6" deep shelf which runs the length of that
wall. It seems like the obvious place to mount a smallish TV, say
17" or so. There are specially-designed water- and steam-proof sets
intended for bathrooms but would one of them be overkill for a
kitchen? Is there any reason why I shouldn't use a conventional set?

Many thanks.






Might be OK as there is not really that much steam emitted from a
sink, other than when you drain boiling water into it. Try dumping a
pan of water down the sink and see where the steam cloud goes.

I've had two kitchens with TVS so far. Mount high up LCDs beat CRTs for
safety .

Nevermind safety, a TV won't last so long if it's damp all the time. Put
it somewhere dry or get a damp proof one if it's not much more expensive.

we've had a tv in our kitchen for years -but it isn't over the sink.
