Install the junction box
26
1.
The junction box is the interface between the outside and the
inside cabling. The junction box must be located on the outside of
the building immediately at the point where the indoor cables
reach the outside of the building.
2.
With appropriate screws (not included), mount the junction box
upright on the outside of the building so that the cables exit from
the bottom of the junction box. This position ensures that the
junction box components are not harmed by weather, especially
rain. (See Table 9 on page 20 for recommended materials for
mounting on a wall.)
Note
CRIMP RINGS. Use crimp rings to connect wires
to a terminal or other screw. Crimp rings are not
required, but can be used to keep the wires under
control while making a good connection. Ten crimp
rings are included in your kit:
–
Five blue (16 to 14 AWG)
–
Four yellow (26 to 24 AWG)
–
One blue (6 AWG)
To use crimp rings:
–
Strip 1.27 cm (0.5 inch) of covering from the wires.
–
Slide crimp ring over wire ends, ensuring you cover the
bare wires. Note that the crimp ring can not be removed
easily after crimping.
–
Using a crimping tool, crimp the ring over the wires so it
forms a unit with the wires.
–
Connect the wires to screw posts using the rounded metal
end. (See Figure 20.)
