   Jan 1, 2015 · 1. I think most fridges have their connections down low, so I'd probably put it about the same height as the receptacles in the house (12-16" to the top). Not sure if there's a standard height. If the receptacle for the fridge is down low, I'd probably line it up with that. You'll not usually see it, but when the fridge is pulled out it will ...

Therefore, it is best to place the socket for connection on the side of it, at a height of 20-40 cm from the floor, although it can be higher if necessary.

   Is a 46-48' refrigerator receptacle height a problem?

   How high should a fridge be?

   • Nobody cares what it looks like once the fridge is in place. It will be all about convenience and repairs. Yep, and even if you have to pull the fridge out, down low is a PITA to reach (crouching), so even chest height would be good. (I guess 48" could be chest height, depending how tall one is!) 4 feet is a good height. Don’t put it to low.
