A method for controlling safe operation of an electric table includes: starting the default setting value or self-set setting value of a sensor unit stored in a memory after power-on; making sure that an electric control module activates the sensor unit when the electric table is raised or lowered, and the sensor unit detects the vibration amplitude of the electric table and records the number of vibrations when the vibration amplitude exceeds the setting value; when the recorded number of vibrations is greater than the default setting value or self-set setting value, the electric control module controls a power mechanism on the electric table to make a rebound action in the opposite direction when the electric table is raised or lowered. Acceleration and gyroscope sensors are vertically installed on a small board, so that the sensitivity of the gyroscope to vibration detection is increased.
