I put strip LED lights under all the wall cabinets, so they put more light directly down on to the work surfaces. I wired them all together in a junction box, connected a rocker switch under the cabinet, and ran a cable up to the top and along to the double receptacle for the microwave.

Then I did the same with upward-facing LED strip lights along the top of the wall cabinets..... and connected them to the same double rocker switch under the cabinets.

Whole set-up uses standard electrical connectors, boxes and switches, but is still a "plug in" set-up, consistent with the strip lights design as plug in fittings.

We put a cabinet over the sink where there was none before, so the recessed bulb in that space was replaced with an under cabinet strip light. There is an extra outlet up there and an extra outlet where the microwave will go above the stove, so I can add more later.
