A junction box is a container that holds electrical connections. The idea of a junction box is usually to keep wires safe, secure and free of dust, dirt and damp. A junction box is usually built within the layers of a wall so that all wires are concealed and the build looks neat and tidy.

A 240 volt wire is the insulation factor of the wire. If you mean a 240 supply source from a distribution panel to a junction box then the answer is yes. You have to keep in mind that the box has to be accessible, meaning that you can get to the box to check the splice within the box. Don't bury the junction box behind the wall board.
