Benching — Expert Answer
How do benching systems handle electrical code compliance?
Commercial benching power units are UL 2196 listed and comply with NEC 605 for furniture power distribution systems, meaning they are permitted to supply electrical power to workstations as plug-connected systems rather than hard-wired circuits. Each power distribution unit (PDU) typically plugs into a standard 20-amp wall circuit and is protected by an internal circuit breaker.
