This British Standard specifies requirements for the
safe provision or installation of electrical power,
data and telecommunications distribution systems
in office furniture and office screens. Requirements
are specified for furniture for general use and for
furniture for use with specific equipment, parts of
which may be built in during manufacture.
Appropriate tests are described for the installed on
power distribution system in the furniture. The low
standard applies to single-phase electrical power
distribution systems operating at rated voltages up
to 250 V a.c. that are connected to the fixed
wiring of the permanent installation of the building
by a 13 A fused plug and
arrangement. The
standard makes provision for the routing of cables
through the furniture.
NOTE. This standard does not apply to electrical appliances
used with or within an article of office furniture, to which
appropriate standards should then apply. The standard does not
apply to power distribution systems that are permanently
connected to the building installation.
