An electrical actuator system for adjustable furniture, in particular height-adjustable tables (1), comprising at least one linear actuator (4), at least one operating unit (22) and a control box (12). By arranging therein at least one connector for cables into mutually opposing wall sections of the control-box cabinet for connection of linear actuators with cables, great simplification of the connection of the linear actuators to the control box is achieved, as when an uncoupling has been omitted, when the actuators have been wrongly connected during assembly, or if an actuator falls apart.
