Well, in accordance with BS 7671, yes ... but ... if the table is part of Machinery as defined in the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations, then the relevant standard, BS EN 60204-1, would require connection to the electrical bonding system of the machine ... BUT that could be effected by physically bolting the table to another part of the machine (although there are conditions when that alone is not adequate).
