How to remove receptacle on backsplash

5 years ago

So we are taking down old cupboards and I've come to a dilemma. There is a receptacle (#2) that needs to be removed. This pink and brown wall will be tiled with floating shelves. Lowest shelf will be around that top receptacle.


It was from our microwave cupboard and is unneeded. I want to keep receptacles 1 and 3. Problem is they're all daisy chained together. I think it goes 1, 2 then to 3. But could be 2, 1 then 3. I know the third is the last one because I moved it and there was just one set of wires coming in.


We could take the outlet out and just have a cover there but it's still ugly in the middle of our tile. The wires are too short inside of the box 2 to connect 1 to 3 without tying them together.


If you know of a way that we can make this work or have it removed or just less ugly it'd be greatly appreciated.
