Abstract
A raceway structure for a prewired wall panel, which structure provides a raceway formed by a single upwardly opening channel-shaped member which releasably attaches to the lower edge of the panel frame. Each leg of this channel member forms an openable side cover. At the end of a series of panels, a one-piece end cover snappingly engages the end of the channel member to close off the channel member and to provide a sturdy structure having a highly desirable appearance. When two such panels are joined to define a 90.degree. corner, then similar end covers can again be utilized, which end covers can be cut along predetermined score lines to define either windows or doors which readily accommodate either a flexible electrical connector joining the two panels, or communication cables which extend between adjacent panels.
