Wall installations for CANTEX PVC Junction Boxes are simple, but must always be done in accordance with all national and regional electrical codes

1. Of course, all power must be turned off at the main power source prior to installation if dealing with any live wires.
2. Drill the amount of holes in the sides of the electrical junction box that are needed in the sizes needed for the conduit you are using.
3. Mount the PVC junction box to a joist.
4. Mount your electrical connection device of choice to the inside of the electrical junction box per the manufacturer’s instructions.
5. Using a dauber and the correct type of CANTEX cement (indicated in the CANTEX full-line product catalog) attach the necessary PVC connection fittings of choice. For a water tight connection, you can also use male terminal adapters and washers for a watertight application.
6. Attach the conduit to the box adapter using a dauber and cement, coating the inside of the connector fitting and the outside to the conduit.
7. Push wires through the conduit into the junction box to connect to the electrical device, according to the manufacturer’s instructions, to create a proper connection for the transfer of power in an NEC approved enclosure.
8. Attach the cover with the screws and a neoprene gasket provided by CANTEX.
