What happens if my sit-stand desk loses power while at standing height?

If an electric sit-stand desk loses power while at standing height, it stays at that height — the motor mechanism is self-locking, meaning the desk won't fall. When power is restored, the desk operates normally. The exception is pneumatic-assist desks, which may need manual intervention to lower if power fails. Some commercial models have a battery backup for the controller that allows lowering in a power outage.
