ABSTRACT:
A curb and cap junction box assembly for protecting joined electrical conductors includes a curb member with a planar flashing portion with a central housing portion extending upwardly from the flashing portion and forming an enclosed space. The central housing portion has top and bottom openings. A plate member is secured over the central housing portion's bottom opening. The plate member includes at least one knockout section therein. A cap member has a planar top portion and a peripheral edge portion extending downwardly therefrom. The cap member is sized to fit over the top opening of the central housing portion and reversibly fastened thereto. The curb and cap mounting assembly is secured to a structure by the planar flashing portion and receives an electrical conductor from interior the structure through a knockout aperture in the plate member and into the enclosed space therein. The electrical conductor extends through the top opening of the central housing portion of the curb member and under the downward extending peripheral edge portion of the cap member and further extends exterior the junction box assembly. The junction box assembly provides an enclosure suitable for high voltage applications.
