Install and Extend Electrical Wiring

Tiny Pantry Closet With MAX STORAGE!
What happens here
An existing electrical cable is discovered behind the pantry wall. To create a safe and accessible connection point for the new coffee station, a new junction box is installed. Initially, the existing cable is cut, but it's realized there isn't enough slack for a safe connection. The creator then removes more drywall to access the wall studs, installs new supports, and runs a longer, new electrical cable with sufficient slack, connecting it to two new junction boxes, one at the back of the cabinet and one accessible within the new structure. Specialized push-in wire connectors are used instead of traditional twist-on wire nuts for cleaner connections.
Goal: Provide safe and accessible power for the coffee station
