General repairs

Desk electrics

Function has a team of BS 6396 certified electrical testers who can ensure the safety and compliance of your furniture installations.

Supply and installation to BS 6396 of sockets and cabling specifically designed for use with office furniture. Remember that BS 6396 is a standard relating to complete electrical systems and not to specific electrical accessories. So, although products may comply with the relevant clauses of this standard, full compliance requires correct installation of the system.
On-site testing of existing or new power modules to guarantee safety to the user. Strict rules apply to the testing and certification of furniture that carries electric cables — certification is valid for 12 months, after which re-testing is a mandatory Health and Safety at Work requirement.
