    Overview

    3 Circuit Shared Neutral, 5 Wires

    Hot 1Hot 2Hot 3

    Oversized NeutralSystem Ground

    Three-circuit electricalcomponents withshared neutrals are stan-dard with 5 wires to providethree circuits that share oneoversized neutral and oneground. This is the traditional3-circuit power alternativethat is specified by adding thesuffix P3 to the panel stylenumber.

    Three-circuit with sepa-rate neutrals have 8 wiresproviding three circuits, eachwith its own separate neutral.The first two circuits share anisolated ground; the thirduses the system ground.

    Four-circuit 3+D are stan-dard with 8 wires to providefour circuits. Three of thesecircuits share an oversizedneutral and a system groundwhile the remaining circuithas its own neutral and iso-lated ground. This is the tra-ditional 4-circuit power, alsoknown as 3+D, that is speci-fied by adding the suffix P4 tothe panel style number.

    Four-circuit, 3I+1 againhave 8 wires but with threecircuits that share an over-sized neutral and isolatedground. The fourth circuit has its own neutral and isattached to the systemground. This electrical sys-tem is like the standard 3+D, but the grounds areswitched, providing three isolated circuits and one general purpose circuit ascompared to one isolated circuit and three general purpose circuits.

    Four-circuit 2+2 alsohave 8 wires but provide twocircuits that share an over-sized neutral and a systemground and an additional twocircuits with a second over-sized neutral and an isolatedground.

    If your usage is knownin advance:Add up the amperage usedby each piece of equipmentin the workstation. When -ever you reach 60 amps (20 amps times 3 circuits) or80 amps (20 amps times 4circuits) from items that arelikely to be used at the sametime, you have reached thelimit for a single power-in.Specify another power-inand continue until all equip -ment is powered.

    If the circuits will normallybe subject to a continuousload (three or more hours ofcontinuous use, such aslights or computers), theNEC requires that circuitcapacity be “de-rated” by 20 percent. Therefore, treatcircuits used for continuousloads as if they were ratedat 16 amps instead of theregular 20 amps.

    Try to anticipate futureincreases in power require -ments and build someexcess capacity into yourplan.cSee table at right for typi-cal and actual amperageusages for components.

    To calculate amperage whenthe wattage of a device isknown, divide watts by 120.

    Some appliances, such aslarge copiers, coffee makers,or space heaters requiremost of the current avail-able on a 20-amp circuit. Itis recommended that suchdevices be supplied withtheir own receptacle/circuit,directly from the building.This leaves the capacity ofthe furniture circuits avail -able for the more dynamicrequirements of the officeequipment.

    Local electrical codes vary.Consult a qualified electricalcontractor or engineer forthe proper planning of elec -trical circuits in your locale.

    If your usage is notknown in advance: The National ElectricalCode (NEC) allows a maxi -mum of 13 receptacles oneach 20-amp circuit. Thisprovides up to 30 recepta clesfor each 3-circuit power-inand 40 receptacles for each4-circuit power-in.

    These numbers refer toreceptacles, not outlets.All Kick receptacles areduplex and include two outlets.

    When planning a power network, you must calculatethe amperage requirementsof all your electrical compo -nents so you can providesufficient electricity to powerthem.

    ...............................................................................................................................................

    Test and verify capaci-ties for your individualsituation. We recommendthat testing be conductedusing your specific cable, aswell as the furniture configu-ration you are considering.Cable capacities in thistabled are based on actualcable studies performed byan independent contractorfollowing EIA/TIA codes andpractices and can be takenas an accurate assessmentof maximum practical capac-ity. Actual cable capacitiesmay vary slightly dependingon which manufacturer pro-duced the cable and the spe-cific field conditions.

    Cable capacities arebased on Category 6 andCategory 6a cables at 55%fill capacity for cable studyperformed on junctions man-ufacturered on or afterOctober 10, 2011.Note: Tests were performedon junctions with tall sleevesinstalled.

    Tip: Low top cap does notaccept any cables.

    Cables Testedå CommScope Systimax Gigaspeed 1071E Series Category 6 Cable OD=0.23"

    ∫ CommScope Systimax X10D 1091B Series Category 6A Cable OD=0.285"

    Power harnessesreduce cable capacity.An average of 10-15 cableswill be reduced per harnessused. However, this numbervaries according to installa-tion practices and the type ofcables used.

    If glass window is usedat the top of a panel,top cap lay-in cable capacityis 20 for category 6 cables.

    When laying cablesvertically behind skins,capacity is dependent onskin width.

    When using stackingjunctions, the fork con-nector does not reducecable capacity.
