Assemble units as described herein only. To do otherwise
may result in instability. All screws, nuts and bolts must be
tightened securely and must be checked periodically after
assembly. Failure to assemble properly, or to secure parts
may result in assembly failure and personal injury.
Pirouette®Tables - Nesting-Base - Electrical
Assembly Instructions
Electrical Overview
Note: If the tables being assembled
contain a power module with
3-prong plug and require an optional
wire trough, proceed to page 16. If
the tables being assembled contain a
power module with 3-prong plug, but
do not require optional wire troughs,
proceed to page 19. If the tables
being assembled contain a Pattern
electrical system, proceed to the
instructions below.
Pattern Electrical System Installation
Note: The Pattern electrical system
is ETL Listed, evaluated to safety
standard UL 962A (USA) and CAN/
CSA-C22.2 No. 308 (Canada). It
allows up to ten power distribution
blocks and up to 50’ of power
jumpers (in either direction of the
power infeed), whichever comes
first, can allow up to eighteen power
modules depending on table width,
and connects to one 15-amp power
supply cord (power infeed). The power
supply cord does not count toward the
maximum 50’ of power jumpers.
Note: The Pattern quick-release tool
is a simple tool designed to help
remove the power connector ends
from the Pattern power distribution
blocks. If reconfiguration of the
Pattern electrical system is required,
reference “Pattern Quick-Release
Tool” instructions on page 27.
1. If a power module with a pop-up
feature was installed (Nacre), make
sure the cover is closed, then
carefully rotate the table to be upside
down on a soft, protective surface.
If a Dean Clamp-On power module
was installed, DO NOT flip the
table upside down. First remove
the clamp-on power module, then
rotate the table upside down before
proceeding to the next step.
Pattern Power Infeed Kit Assembly
Important: Details A & B are
provided as a visual guide to
illustrate the different white and
grey power distribution blocks,
and which male/female connector
ends plug into each port correctly.
If connector ends are switched
around and plugged into a block’s
ports incorrectly, disassembly and
reassembly will be required.
1. Position a wire trough with the
open-side face up, onto the floor
along the back side of each
upside-down table as illustrated.
Face the wire trough’s Snap-In
RPT module mounting holes of the
wire trough away from the back
edge of the table to make flipping
it into position easier once other
components have been installed
together into it (Figure 1).
2. For a run of tables, start Pattern
electrical system assembly with the
table that will contain the Pattern
power infeed. Place the Pattern
power infeed into the wire trough,
routing the connector end toward the
middle of the trough, and leaving the
plug end out of the wire trough as
illustrated (Figure 1).
3. Locate one white and one grey
Pattern power distribution block.
Plug the power infeed’s male
connector end into the white power
distribution block first, as illustrated
(Figure 1 & Detail A).
4. Next locate a 12” Pattern power
jumper and plug the female
connector end into the white power
distribution block also. As illustrated
in Detail A, either port opposite the
power supply cord is fine (Figure 1
& Detail A).
5. Take a grey power Pattern
distribution block in hand. Plug the
previously installed (step 4) 12”
Pattern power jumper’s male end into
the grey power distribution block as
illustrated (Figure 1 & Detail B).
6. Steps 1 through 5 assemble a
standard Pattern power infeed
kit (Figure 1). If the table being
assembled has the power infeed
installed and it will receive three
power modules, an additional 12”
Pattern power jumper and grey
Pattern power distribution block on
the end will be required after the first
grey distribution block (Figure 1).
