■ Under-desk and popular range testing and accreditation

■ Under-desk and desktop British Standards BS 6396 : 2008 Electrical Systems in Office Furniture and Office Screens BS 7671 : 2008 Requirements for Electrical Installation (IEE Wiring Regulations 17th Edition) Electricity at Work Regulations 1989

Conform to BS 5733 and the relevant parts of BS 1363 part 2 Manufactured within an approved ISO 9001 : 2008 facility Quality assurance certificate No. 10270

Health & Safety Legislation Below is a brief outline of the main criteria within the standards :

Electrical test data Rated current Rated voltage Frequency

BS 6396 : 2008 was published with regard to the use of electrical equipment within general office furniture and screens. This standard sets out in its scope the use and testing of electrical socket outlets and associated wiring when used together with a 13 A BS 1363 fused plug for mains supply and makes provision for the routing of cables through furniture

up to 32 A 250 V ~ 50/60 Hz

Conductor resistance at 20°C

For compliance with this standard, socket outlet configurations 2 or 4 outlets should be individually fused at 5 A and 6 outlets individually fused at 3·15 A

BS 7671 : 2008 (17th Edition). The Health and Safety Executive states that installations which conform to the standards laid down in BS 7671 : 2008 are regarded by the HSE as likely to achieve conformity with the relevant parts of the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989

Special note should be taken of regulation 543·7 within BS 7671 : 2008 - Earthing requirements for the installation of equipment having high protective conductor currents Regulation 543·7 has particular importance when there is a requirement for a quantity of information technology equipment being supplied from a final circuit in a location where the sum of their protective currents exceeds 10 mA in normal use. Due to current in the protective conductor arising from the use of IT equipment, there is a requirement to provide mechanically protected 4 mm2 conductor (543·7·1·3(ii)). Intersoc achieves this when wired in accordance with the installation sheets by providing mechanically protected 5 mm2 protective conductors within the product

Intersoc® under-desk modules installation and configuration

■ Installation To connect and disconnect Intersoc modules 1. Connection / disconnection to be made by a competent person 2. Before connecting modules ensure they are the correct way up and in line 3. Push modules together one at a time 4. Modules self-lock when fully pushed together 5. To disconnect modules slide green latch to unlock module and pull apart 6. Always end module run with blank end cap or interconnect

Module self-locking latch

Underside of modules shown

To fix modules to surface 1. Insert through all fixing holes no. 8 pozi-pan screw or M4 bolt to required length 2. Tighten screw / bolt down to mounting surface

Slide green latch

4 socket in-feed module shown, extended to 6 sockets by adding a 2 socket module and closed by a blank end cap

16 A 4 socket in-feed module

■ Product configuration 1. Select the type of distribution system - standard, or low noise / clean earth 2. Select the means of powering the system - cable or power track tap-off 3. Select the type of in-feed module to match the cable capacity - 16 A or 32 A 4. Select the means of protection 5. Select the number of socket modules from the 2 or 4 gang range (individually fused or non-fused) 6. Select the orientation of the sockets (socket angle) 7. Select the interconnection units if required 8. Finish system with the end cap (All modules push fit and lock together on-site or can be factory assembled to customer requirement)
