       2 . Wall cabinet for modular kitchens as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that a metal section ( 6 ,  100 ) is interposed at the height of the back edge ( 1   a ) of the bottom ( 1 ) between the lower sides ( 3   a ) of the opposite pair of lateral sides ( 3 ), being provided with a top longitudinal groove ( 6   a,    60   a ) that receives the lower edge ( 4   a ) of the back panel ( 4 ). 
   
   
       3 . Wall cabinet for modular kitchens as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that a metal section ( 7 ) is interposed at the height of the front side ( 1   b ) of the bottom ( 1 ) between the lower sides ( 3   a ) of the opposite pair of lateral sides ( 3 ), being provided with a lower longitudinal groove ( 6   a,    60   a ) that receives the LED light bar ( 8 ). 
   
   
       4 . Wall cabinet for modular kitchens as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that the following components are interposed between the lower sides ( 3   a ) of the opposite pair of lateral sides ( 3 ):
 a first metal section ( 6 ) in parallel position to the back edge ( 1   a ) of the bottom ( 1 ) provided with a lower longitudinal groove ( 6   b ) designed to receive and support the under the cabinet accessories;   a second metal section ( 7 ) in parallel position to the front edge ( 1   b ) of the bottom ( 1 ) provided with a lower longitudinal groove ( 7   b ) designed to receive a lighting bar with LED's ( 8 ).   
   
   
       5 . Wall cabinet for modular kitchens as claimed in  claim 4 , characterised in that the first metal section ( 6 ) is provided on the front with a longitudinal shelf ( 6   d ) having a perfectly horizontal direction and in that the second metal section ( 7 ) is provided on the back with a longitudinal shelf ( 7   d ) having a perfectly horizontal direction. 
   
   
       6 . Wall cabinet for modular kitchens as claimed in  claim 4 , characterised in that:
 the second metal section ( 7 ) is provided on the front with a longitudinal groove ( 7   a ) with gasket ( 9 ).   
   
   
       7 . Wall cabinet for modular kitchens as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that the only one metal section ( 100 ) is interposed between the lower sides ( 3   a ) of the opposite pair of lateral sides ( 3 ), in parallel position to the back edge ( 1   a ) of the bottom ( 1 ) provided with:
 a lower pair of parallel longitudinal grooves, the one ( 60   b ) facing the back of the cabinet, designed to receive and support under the cabinet accessories, and the other ( 70   b ) facing the front of the cabinet (M) designed to receive the LED light bar ( 8 );   a top groove ( 60   a ) facing the back of the cabinet designed to receive the lower edge ( 4   a ) of the back panel ( 4 );   a front longitudinal groove ( 60   d ) designed to connect the section ( 100 ) with the bottom ( 1 ).   
   
   
       8 . Wall cabinet for modular kitchens as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that the groove ( 6   b,    60   b ) has an overturned U-shaped cross-section, with opening having reduced width because of a longitudinal sloping end ( 6   c ) obtained on the front edge of the groove ( 6   b,    60   b ) sloping towards the inside of ht groove ( 6   b,    60   b ). 
   
   
       9 . Wall cabinet for modular kitchens as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that the sections ( 6 ,  7 ,  100 ) are firmly fixed inside the lateral sides ( 3 ) of the cabinet (M). 
   
   
       10 . Wall cabinet for modular kitchens as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that the lower grooves ( 7   b,    70   b ) have an overturned U-shaped cross-section with corners internally provided with a longitudinal groove ( 7   e ) where a longitudinal tooth (D) obtained in external position on the LED light bar ( 8 ) is elastically snap-fitted. 
   
   
       11 . Wall cabinet for modular kitchens as claimed  claim 10 , characterised in that the light bar ( 8 ) is formed of a strip ( 8   a ) that supports a close series of LED's (L) and the relevant electrical circuit, with on/off switch ( 1 ), and a case ( 8   b ) that houses, covers, insulates and protects the strip ( 8   a ). 
   
   
       12 . Wall cabinet for modular kitchens as claimed  claim 11 , characterised in that the case ( 8   b ) is suitably shaped and dimensioned in order to be snap-fitted inside the longitudinal groove ( 7   b,    70   b ) and in that it has a U-shaped cross-section with a horizontal base (LO) and two lateral borders (SL), in which the horizontal base (LO) has a closed series of holes (F) designed to receive the close series of LED's (L) and the on/off switch ( 1 ), while the edge of the lateral borders (SL) is provided externally with a longitudinal tooth (D) designed to be received into the longitudinal groove ( 7   e ).
