Docking Drawer 20 amp Safety Interlock Outlet describes a 20 amp Safety Interlock Outlet with Magnetic Switch that directly connects one appliance with a single plug, giving a dedicated power point for an appliance garage or similar cabinet space. The magnetic switch is described as non-contact, so it controls power without a physical mechanical trigger, which supports consistent operation over many open and close cycles. The safety interlock function turns power OFF automatically when the switch aligns with the magnet, so heat-generating appliances shut down when the cabinet door or panel reaches the closed position. This behavior helps keep appliances de-energized inside closed cabinet spaces, which is important wherever heat build-up needs to be limited inside millwork or casework. The product is ETL Listed and complies with NEC and CEC standards, along with certification for UL 498 and CSA 22.2 #42, signaling that it has been evaluated against recognized safety requirements for use in the US and Canada.
The product is described as fitting a standard single-gang wall box, so it uses a familiar electrical device footprint that aligns with common rough-in framing and cabinet cutout practices. Mounting directly behind cabinet doors places the outlet where appliance cords stay within the cabinet envelope, which helps keep wiring concealed when doors are closed. Because the configuration directly connects one appliance with a single plug, installers route a single branch-circuit feed to the wall box, then plug the appliance into this controlled outlet inside the cabinet. The normally closed magnetic switch design keeps the circuit ready until the switch aligns with the magnet, tying door position to power status in a predictable way during installation planning.
The SAP and web descriptions refer to an "APP GARAGE" and an outlet for appliance garages, positioning this 20 amp Safety Interlock Outlet for use in upper or base cabinet appliance storage areas. Mounting behind cabinet doors keeps the outlet and plug within the cabinet interior, which is useful where small appliances are meant to stay plugged in but out of sight. The magnetic switch aligns with a magnet near the door or panel, so when the door is closed, the safety function turns power OFF automatically inside the enclosed cabinet space. This behavior is particularly relevant in locations where appliances such as toasters or similar heat-generating units rest under wood cabinetry, because tying power status to door position keeps energized operation confined to times when the door is not in the closed alignment. The product is listed as approved for use in the US and Canada, supporting projects across both code jurisdictions that reference NEC and CEC standards.
The web description identifies the switch as a non-contact magnetic switch, which means the sensing takes place magnetically rather than through a physical plunger or lever, helping reduce mechanical wear at the moving interface. This non-contact design supports reliable power control every time the magnet reaches the alignment point, so installers can plan door stops and hinge adjustments around a consistent switching position. Because the power turns OFF automatically when the switch aligns with the magnet, the outlet does not rely on an appliance knob or external timer to interrupt power inside the cabinet, tying shutoff directly to door alignment instead. The normally closed classification indicates that, in its resting unaligned state, the circuit is closed, and the presence of the magnet changes that state, which gives designers a clear understanding of how the outlet behaves as doors travel between open and closed positions. The stated easy installation into a standard single-gang wall box means electricians can treat the rough-in similarly to a typical receptacle location while still delivering an interlock function tailored to appliance garages and comparable cabinet spaces.
The outlet is described for appliance garages and for use behind cabinet doors, so it suits cabinet spaces where a single small appliance is stored and used.
The 20 amp Safety Interlock Outlet turns power OFF automatically when the switch aligns with the magnet, so door position directly controls whether the appliance remains energized.
The non-contact magnetic switch provides reliable power control every time without a mechanical plunger, supporting consistent operation through repeated cabinet door movements.
The configuration directly connects one appliance with a single plug, so it is intended to serve a single heat-generating unit within the cabinet.
The product fits a standard single-gang wall box and mounts behind cabinet doors, integrating with familiar electrical boxes inside millwork.
The 20 amp Safety Interlock Outlet is ETL Listed, complies with NEC and CEC standards, and is certified for UL 498 and CSA 22.2 #42 for use in the US and Canada.
This Docking Drawer 20 amp Safety Interlock Outlet with Magnetic Switch pairs a standard single-gang wall box fit with an interlock designed around appliance garages and similar enclosed cabinet spaces. The non-contact magnetic switch turns power OFF automatically when it aligns with the magnet, tying cabinet closure directly to de-energizing the outlet. The configuration that directly connects one appliance with a single plug focuses this device on single-appliance layouts where a 20 amp circuit and safety shutoff are desired. ETL Listing, NEC and CEC compliance, and certifications for UL 498 and CSA 22.2 #42 position the outlet as suitable for projects in the US and Canada that call for documented safety testing.
