It would be like turning off
your microwave oven at the wall every time you'd finished cooking.

But you can if you want to or need to.

Cite the legislation requiring a microwave to be connected to an
accessible switched outlet.


The rule that GPOs have to have a switch.


I said ACCESSIBLE. Mine or example is sited in front of the socket. I'd
have to pull the microwave out to get to it.


Still accessible. Even you should be able to manage that.
