Are Docking Drawer Blade Outlets Designed for Hardwired Installation?
Although it is technically possible to hardwire a corded device—such as our in-drawer outlets—doing so alters the product and voids its ETL Listing. All Docking Drawer Blade outlets are ETL Listed, which means they are certified for safety when installed as designed.
Modifying a listed product by hardwiring it shifts the responsibility and liability from the manufacturer to the person performing the modification. For this reason, we strongly advise against hardwiring any Docking Drawer Blade Series outlet or other ETL Listed devices.
