ABSTRACT:
An aerial enclosure for a terminal block and method for installing the terminal block and a cable connected thereto within the enclosure. The enclosure includes a housing that defines an interior region adapted to contain the terminal block. The housing has an open front face and includes a rear wall, and a number of side walls that border the interior region. A cover is connected to the housing and is moveable to either cover or expose the interior region. One side wall of the housing includes a terminal block opening sized to permit insertion therethrough of the terminal block and cable. An entrance cap is adapted to cover the terminal block opening and defines a through passage sized to permit the cable to extend through the through passage. During manufacture, the entrance cap can be installed onto the cable before or after the cable is connected to the terminal block. The entrance cap is attached to the enclosure so that the terminal block opening is covered by the entrance cap.
