The mini terminal junction box is a safe and easy way to splice wiring in a lighting application and features a slim design for low profile LED installations. Compliant with electrical codes requiring two conductor connections within an enclosure, this is an affordable and professional way to make sure there are no "loose ends" during inspection, and avoids messy wire nut and electrical tape connections. This junction box is rated for high and low voltage electrical connections up to 450 V, but is not rated for in-wall use. The Mini Terminal Junction Box features a removable terminal block for easily connecting a pair of wires. The terminals of this junction box can accommodate any size wire up to 14 AWG (the standard gauge of household Romex). The larger opening in the housing fits the insulation of Romex wire as large as 14 AWG, and the smaller opening fits the insulation of two strand wire that is 18 AWG or smaller. When the connection is made, simply pop the terminal block back into the junction box and snap the lid shut.
