✅ C. Use a Power Strip or Smart Outlet Near Your Dish Cover
A simple and safe workaround if you want easy access to power beside your kitchen prep area:
🔌 A power strip with a built-in switch can act as your external “outlet + switch combo.”
These are safe, rated for kitchen use (if you buy a good quality one), and allow you to:
Plug in a warming device,
Turn it on and off with a switch,
Use additional outlets for other appliances.
This doesn’t put outlets in a dish cover, but it achieves the same functional goal safely.
4. Custom or DIY Approaches (If You Really Want It)
Technically, if you understand electrical safety and food safety standards, and you’re comfortable with custom fabrication, you could:
🔹 Buy an electrical box cover that combines a switch and outlet (intended for wall mounting).
🔹 Modify a stainless-steel or insulated food cover to mount this plate.
🔹 Wire it into a protected circuit with a qualified electrician.Groceries
