23、commodate incoming or outgoing conductors or both and are intended to be used in accordance with the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70. Termination boxes are investigated for use on the line or load side of service equipment. 1.2 The incoming and outgoing conductors may be routed through knockouts o

24、r openings in the box for cable, conduit, or electrical metallic tubing. The termination box may also have special openings to match with similar openings in other equipment such as meter sockets, panelboards, switch or circuit breaker enclosures, wireways, and the like. 1.3 These requirements also

25、cover termination bases to be eld installed in termination boxes and termination boxes in which termination bases are to be eld installed. 1.4 This category covers mounting posts and pedestals rated 600 V ac or less intended to serve as a raceway for underground wiring that is being brought above gr

26、ade to feed an outdoor electrical distribution device, such as a power outlet, panelboard, meter socket, circuit breaker enclosure or the like. They are intended to support the distribution device, which is installed either in the factory or in the eld. They may contain electrical termination points

27、 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 output circuits, nor equipment containing switching devices, relays, or overcurrent protective devices. These requirements also do not cover

28、busway ttings known as End Cable Tap Boxes which are covered by the Standard for Busways, UL 857. 2 Components 2.1 Except as indicated in 2.2, a component of a product covered by this standard shall comply with the requirements for that component. See Appendix A for a list of standards covering comp

29、onents generally used in the products covered by this standard. 2.2 A component is not required to comply with a specic requirement that: a) Involves a feature or characteristic not required in the application of the component in the product covered by this standard, or b) Is superseded by a require

30、ment in this standard. 2.3 A component shall be used in accordance with its rating established for the intended conditions of use. 2.4 Specic components are incomplete in construction features or restricted in performance capabilities. Such components are intended for use only under limited conditio

31、ns, such as certain temperatures not exceeding specied limits, and shall be used only under those specic conditions.

Exception No. 1: A termination box enclosure may be constructed with a spec

35、ial opening for connection to other equipment if the termination box is marked as specied in 26.5.1 and the construction complies with 6.1.2. Exception No. 2: A termination box intended for oor mounting or of a post or pedestal type may have an open bottom. 6.1.2 A termination box provided with spec

36、ial openings shall be provided with: a) Mating surfaces of at least 3/8 inch (9.5 mm) on each side of the opening as shown in Figure 6.1. b) Means to close the end of an enclosure with an available tting marked for use with the termination box.

For a construction having a non-threaded opening, the bonding means may be provided as separate parts for eld installation. An enclosure intended for eld assembly of the bonding means

39、shall be provided with instructions for installation. The instructions shall include the identication of the parts and their method of installation. Exception: The bonding means need not be provided in a nonmetallic enclosure not intended for use with a metallic conduit system if the enclosure is ma

43、ll be a spacing of not less than 1/32 inch (0.8 mm) between the plane of the top of the recess and the head of the largest screw that is provided with the box. If a screw is not provided with a box, this spacing shall be measured using the largest: a) Round-head screw, specied in Table 6.1, that can

44、 be inserted in a hole that is not chamfered; or b) Flat-head screw that can be inserted in a hole that is chamfered.
