Abstract
A wiring system for a partition assembly comprises a plurality of horizontally extending elongated wiring channels readily attachable to the outer face of adjacently disposed panels and supporting posts by means of one or more removable hanger assemblies juxtaposed each post. Each hanger assembly including at least one terminal section insertable in the end of an adjacent panel wiring channel and a medial section serving to support a post wiring channel. One or more wiring compartments within all of the wiring channels are longitudinally aligned with one another to provide continuous electrical raceways or compartments from one end of the assembly to the other and an interlocking effect is achieved between adjacent wiring channels by providing mitered end edges on the channels. The channels are extruded of dual-durometer plastic composition to form a rigid body defining the wiring compartments therein with each compartment including a displaceable flexible access wall on one peripheral wall thereof and including a longitudinal slot to permit the passage of wires therebetween at any point along the longitudinal extent of any one of the wiring channels.
