Hiya, I know everyone's busy so this is a QUICKY!!

How far, (if any), does a DSO / SSO / Sw'd Spur etc... have to be away from a kitchen sink?

Fanks... ?

NHBC agree with the 300mm guidance https://www.procertssoftware.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/NHBC-Electrical-Fittings-Near-Cookers-Sinks-and-Wash-Basins.pdf

They measure from the basin, so their diagram has a DSO above the draining board.

They recommend 100mm from a hob, but most manufacturers of gas hobs recommend 50mm from the edge of a hob to a combustible surface, which does seem a bit close to me.
