    Sockets can be under cabinets, for the likes of Washing Machine, Dishwasher, Fridge etc. However they must be fed from a Double Pole Switch above the cabinet.

    Not sure about directly below sink, Dishwasher are normally very near the sink for waste pipe connection.

    How does that work for an island unit with a dishwasher?

    I'd think you'd need a DP Switch on wall , with the lead going down wall and across under floor in a conduit and up to a socket outlet in island.
