A 14\4 three phase wire to a kitchen counter [split] plug, then a 14\2 wire to a fridge plug. Is this acceptable [img]graemlins/dish.gif[/img]

If the panel is single phase, you can't do this, you would need 2 neutrals to make this work. You wouldn't be able to balance the load on the neutrals. The split counter receptacle could share one neutral, but the fridge would need another neutral. If the panel was three phase you could run three circuits off of one neutral.

We have done similar in kitchens in office buildings. In conduit pull sets of #12 (four conductors, red-black-blue-white) to a J.B. near the kitchen and then run b-x to the various outlets. In these circumstances a 4 conductor set would supply a counter split receptacle and another outlet such as a fridge or microwave.
