21、oxes rated 600 V or less that consist of lengths of bus bars,terminal strips, or terminal blocks with provision for wire connectors to accommodate incoming or outgoingconductors or both and are intended to be used in accordance with the National Electrical Code, NFPA70. Termination boxes are investi

22、gated for use on the line or load side of service equipment.1.2 The incoming and outgoing conductors may be routed through knockouts or openings in the box forcable, conduit, or electrical metallic tubing. The termination box may also have special openings to matchwith similar openings in other equi

23、pment such as meter sockets, panelboards, switch or circuit breakerenclosures, wireways, and the like.1.3 These requirements also cover termination bases to be field installed in termination boxes andtermination boxes in which termination bases are to be field installed.1.4 This category covers moun

24、ting posts and pedestals rated 600 V ac or less intended to serve as araceway for underground wiring that is being brought above grade to feed an outdoor electrical distributiondevice, such as a power outlet, panelboard, meter socket, circuit breaker enclosure or the like. They areintended to suppor

25、t the distribution device, which is installed either in the factory or in the field. They maycontain electrical termination points for underground wiring and for wiring to the distribution device.1.5 These requirements do not cover equipment connected only by bus bars for both input and outputcircui

26、ts, nor equipment containing switching devices, relays, or overcurrent protective devices. Theserequirements also do not cover busway fittings known as End Cable Tap Boxes which are covered bythe Standard for Busways, UL 857.2 Components2.1 Except as indicated in 2.2, a component of a product covere

27、d by this standard shall comply with therequirements for that component. See Appendix A for a list of standards covering components generallyused in the products covered by this standard.2.2 A component is not required to comply with a specific requirement that:a) Involves a feature or characteristi

28、c not required in the application of the component in theproduct covered by this standard, orb) Is superseded by a requirement in this standard.2.3 A component shall be used in accordance with its rating established for the intended conditions ofuse.2.4 Specific components are incomplete in construc

29、tion features or restricted in performance capabilities.Such components are intended for use only under limited conditions, such as certain temperatures notexceeding specified limits, and shall be used only under those specific conditions.OCTOBER 31, 2011 TERMINATION BOXES - UL 1773 5UL COPYRIGHTED
