I have a kitchen where 2 of 3 sides would be considered peninsulas. ( plus an island ). There is no back wall on one of the 2 peninsulas, and nothing goes higher than the counter. I am looking for a NARROW pop up for one wall ( 3.5" metal stud ) and a low/minimal space pop-up for the other wall at a reasonable price...
Any suggestions would be appreciated...see attached...Thanx..dhsvcs

I assumed 2017
Section A will need a receptacle probably at the far right within 12" of the top
Section B, I believe, will only need the one on the wall but that doesn't look possible so one at the end of the peninsula would work.
The island will need one

WC was quite a character

I assumed that the island had 12" behind the cooktop which would make the island require only one receptacle

(4) Separate Spaces. Countertop spaces separated by rangetops,
refrigerators, or sinks shall be considered as separate
countertop spaces in applying the requirements of
210.52(C)(1). If a range, counter-mounted cooking unit, or
sink is installed in an island or peninsular countertop and the
depth of the countertop behind the range, counter-mounted
cooking unit, or sink is less than 300 mm (12 in.), the range,
counter-mounted cooking unit, or sink shall be considered to
divide the countertop space into two separate countertop
spaces. Each separate countertop space shall comply with the
applicable requirements in 210.52(C).

There are no side walls...gets a little tricky..
I will try to give the customer a couple of recepts per side, bit pop-ups and flip ups becomes expensive.
I am thinking on the opposite side of the counters I may place one and I will need to check clearance for drawers...

One peninsula butts into a wall below a window. The receptacle can go there. I always worked with the cabinet guys to make sure their was room for the required outlets or for what the owners wanted.
