Waterproof Junction Boxes
- Ideal for making wiring connections above or below decks, even in areas subject to occasional spray
- Similar to BX Series junction boxes, but made from rugged, non-corrosive, high impact polypropylene
- Snap-on cover provides watertight seal
- “Universal” cut-to -fit (see diagram) graduated diameter cable entries accommodate wide cable range
- Multiple position connector strips with “captive” screw compression wire terminals installed, see matrix below for connector strip specifications per box
- Multiple knockouts provided for conduit access (in addition to cable entries)
- IEC Waterproof Rating: IP55 – “Water projected in jets against the enclosure from any direction shall have no harmful effects.”

Connector Strips Installed in Boxes
Molded nylon encases pairs of connectors that use screw compression to secure wires without use of lugs. Ideal for electronic installations. Brass barrels capture wires and are held in place with a stainless steel “finger” compressed by a screw. The screw does not make contact with the wires, protecting the copper strands from cuts and breakage – meets ABYC standards.
