W-Series Junction Boxes

4E

Application and Selection

Applications:
Junction boxes, designed for hazardous
and non-hazardous locations, are used in a
variety of industries to perform the
following functions:
As a pull box
To provide enclosures for splices and
taps
As a mounting box for multi-device
control stations
For housing apparatus, instruments, and
other devices

Options and Accessories:

Considerations for
Selection:
Environmental location the physical
location of the junction box will call for
proper construction of the box to meet
National Electrical Code requirements
and will affect the material and finish
needed to meet weather and corrosive
conditions, if present.
Number and size of conductors
combined with the function to be
performed (i.e., splicing, pull box),
determines the amount of space
needed, and therefore, the required
physical dimensions of the box.
Conduit layout determines the number,
size, and location of the conduit
openings in the box. It will also
determine the type of mounting required
(i.e., flush or surface positioning of the
box).
Flexibility required if changes in the
electrical system are anticipated, the
box chosen should be easily adaptable,
either by construction or size to the
future system.

A wide variety of options and accessories

for special application are available for the
various junction box families. These can
be selected once the type of junction box
has been determined. These options are
shown on the individual pages. Some of
the options available include:
Special covers
Hinged covers
Materials and finishes
Equipment mounting plates
Conduit or device openings
Corro-free epoxy powder coat
