    Not necessarily, it depends.

    The purpose of the waterproof case is mainly to prevent water from splashing on the socket and water vapor from condensing into water droplets and flowing into the socket. When taking a bath in the bathroom, there is a lot of water vapor, so it is necessary to install a waterproof box.

    The water vapor in the kitchen is correspondingly smaller, and the waterproof box is not mandatory. But if the socket is close to the faucet, it is necessary to install a waterproof box.

    When arranging outlets, keep them as far away from water sources as possible.

    If this is installed, it will be a little better in terms of safety, but in terms of aesthetics, it is best not to install it, which will affect the appearance.

    Consider an outlet with a switch to make it convenient and safe.

    The sockets installed in the kitchen are mainly concentrated on the countertop of the cabinet (for ovens, soybean milk machines, rice cookers, etc., which are convenient to use), refrigerators, etc., and the sockets with switches are convenient for power-on and power-off, and do not need to be plugged and unplugged frequently; If you need a kitchen treasure under the sink, the socket should preferably have a waterproof box.
