Abstract
A work surface structure having a channel arrangement fixed to and extending longitudinally along a front edge of a top member for accommodating power/communication cables. The channel arrangement has a bottom wall provided with openings which accommodate removable tray modules. One of the tray modules can be of substantial depth to mount a power unit therein which provides a plurality of accessible receptacles. Access to the trays is through the channel, the latter having several openable covers. These covers are preferably hinged adjacent their rearward edges and, in the vicinity of their forward edges when in the closed position, there is defined an elongated access opening which communicates with the channel to permit power or communication cables to extend therethrough.
