spikecoos21 0 Posted March 15, 2015 I am using a QH8003B bullet camera. What kind of junction box should I use for it to conceal the connections and the cable coming out of the wall? Thank you very much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you very much. I'd suggest something like this http://www.homedepot.com/p/Bell-1-Gang-5-Hole-Non-Metallic-Round-Electrical-Box-PRB57550WH/202284522 and this to cover http://www.homedepot.com/p/Bell-1-Gang-Round-Blank-Plastic-Cover-White-PBC300WH/204155109?MERCH=REC-_-NavPLPHorizontal1_rr-_-NA-_-204155109-_-N. They come in other colours too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joeinamillion 0 Posted March 16, 2015 Could I attached the camera onto the blank cover? Yes, that's the idea. Just carefully drill the needed holes. Search around on the net or in store, there might be a stronger one (It's hard to tell how thick/strong that one is form the photo). It should be ok, cameras don't have much weight, unless a fat bird decides to nest on top of it. Almost any box cover can be used. If the camera doesn't have a moisture cap of the cable (or if you can't use it) electrical tape is perfect. Here's another box, with a cover too. And it's very strong. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Carlon-15-15-cu-in-Type-X-Round-Conduit-Body-E970CDE-CTN/100404094?N=5yc1vZbohnZ1z0usncZ1z116nv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This cover is much better than the first one I linked to above. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Carlon-4-in-Round-Blank-Electrical-Cover-10-per-Case-E365CW-10R/202077436?MERCH=REC-_-PIPHorizontal1_rr-_-100404094-_-202077436-_-N Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you know what kind of conduit is compatible with that junction box? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the toss 0 Posted March 17, 2015 Just remember that as soon as you drill into the box it is no longer watertight. Drill a 2mm drain hole in the bottom. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
