The enclosure is adapted to encase the wiring running along the rear of the desk to supply electrical current to various appliances and equipment supported on or in proximity to the desk top, and has a front longitudinal slot through which wires can be conducted from within the enclosure to the desk top at any desired location. A flexible tapered wiper strip covers the slot and extends forwardly downward to lightly contact its front end with the desk top.
