How to cut around tiles for powerpoint on splashback?

Need some clarification, do we need to cut around tiles to make space for a power point outlet or can we tile as close to, grout and place power point over tiles by screwing thru tiles into silver part in wall?

Re: kitchen backsplash

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @MJARNA. It's wonderful to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about tiling around a powerpoint.

The powerpoint would typically be installed over the tiles as per the image. The tiles do need to be cut to allow access for your electrician to install cabling and screws, though.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
