Nop... they can be fed from fused spur in adajacent unit/cupboard. Or even just put on a plug top and have a socket in adjacent unit/cupboard Hope that helps

As long they are fixed towards the Top & front of the cupboard and the material they are fixed to is of whats termed...substantial construction----i.e. not screwed to cheapo flimsy units.
