Abstract

An electrical junction box assembly and a method for its use with a solar electric panel mounted on a roof. The solar panel has a junction mounted on a portion of it with wiring leading from the junction for conducting electricity generated by the panel. The junction box includes a watertight enclosure defining at least one chamber for enclosing and protecting the junction. The enclosure has a support surface for supporting the junction above the roof. The support surface defines a wire inlet opening leading into the chamber to provide clearance for the wiring from the junction to pass into the chamber.
