Abstract: An electrified wall panel in a modular furniture environment includes a plurality of multi-port electrical distribution blocks diversely located throughout the panel. Certain ones of the multi-port electrical distribution blocks are fixed to wall panel frame members and other ones of the multi-port electrical distribution blocks are free of the wall panel. A plurality of jumper cables, each having connectors at opposite cable ends are adapted to mate with any one of the multi-port electrical distribution block ports. The cables electrically interconnect the distribution blocks to form one complete circuit. There are a plurality of electrical receptacles, each having an electrical connector near one end which are electrically coupled to a port of a corresponding multi-port electrical distribution block. The system is assembled by fixing a jumper mounting bracket to a jumper cable near one end of the jumper cable. The jumper mounting bracket is attached to a support member.

Abstract: A modular wall panel assembly for use in a modular furniture environment including a modular wall panel and an electrical receptacle connected to the modular wall panel. The electrical receptacle includes a connector having a plurality of connector terminals, a plurality of receptacle terminals, and at least one jumper which connects one of the plurality of receptacle terminals to one of the plurality of connector terminals.

Abstract: A modular furniture power distribution system has a plurality of multiconductor electrical cables (42, 44, 46, 48, 62), each having an electrical connector (98, 100, 102) at a first and second ends. There are at least two upstanding partition panels (58), each having an elongated generally horizontally extending channel or raceway (60) for receiving a corresponding electrical cable, and a stanchion or leg (68, 70, 72, 74) for supporting juxtaposed partition panel ends. The support stanchion forms an obstacle precluding direct communication between adjacent partition channels because it provides inadequate clearance to accommodate an electrical coupling between the electrical connector in one channel and the corresponding electrical connector in the other panel.

Abstract: A lampholder assembly in which lampholders are supported on a bracket in a back-to-back configuration with no gap therebetween is formed of a pair of insulative lampholders, each having a generally planar back surface and an opposite front face including a lamp receiving opening. One lampholder includes a set of two resilient latching pawls extending generally orthogonally from and to either side of the back surface thereof and the other lampholder includes a set of two rigid bosses extending from laterally opposite sides thereof. A lampholder mounting bracket receives the bosses and latching pawls to rigidly support the lampholders in back-to-back contact with one another.

Abstract: A power entry assembly for an electrical distribution system, the power entry assembly includes at least one conductor carrier and a housing connected to the at least one conductor carrier. The housing includes a first orientation relative to the at least one conductor carrier. A connector is connected to the housing at a second orientation, where the first orientation is approximately 180° from the second orientation. Two conductor carriers may be used, one for alternating current conductors and the other for direct current conductors. The two conductor carriers may have different outside textures which allows an installer to correctly orient the power entry assembly by feel alone.

Abstract: An electrical assembly for use with an electrical distribution system used in a modular furniture system. The electrical assembly includes a flexible sleeving with a first sleeving end which has a first cross-section of a first geometrical shape, and a conduit with a first conduit end which has a second cross-section of a second geometrical shape, where the second geometrical shape is different than the first geometrical shape. A coupler is over-molded the first sleeving end and the first conduit end. The coupler includes a first coupler end and a second coupler end, the first coupler end has a first aperture complimentary in shape to the first cross-section, and the second coupler end includes a second aperture complimentary in shape to the second cross-section.
