Do you need a junction box for each light fixture?
Can lights have a junction box attached to them. So yes.
When does code require junction box covers to be labeled?
Junction box labeling is required by Code (NEC) on boxes containing fire alarm circuits and circuits fed from emergency power panels backed up by generators. However, it is a good trade practice to always label your j-box covers with the circuit voltage and circuit numbers.

Can you run a 240v wire from the electrical panel then put a junction box to run it where you want?
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.
What is the benefit of installing a junction box on the outer wall of a house?
You can use the junction box to send power outside to another building as long as you do not overload the circuit. Other than that there is no real benefit.
Are junction boxes normally used in wiring the first floor of a house?
The area of a home has nothing to do with wear a junction box is placed. A junction box is placed wear a junction box is needed to split a circuit. any splice SHALL be in a junction box a junction box SHALL be accessable
Can a 240V wire be run from the junction box and not the service box?
Junction box for what? Do you mean a sub panel?

What is junction box?
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.
Is it safe to glue or tape an electrical socket in place?
No, the receptacle needs the screws in place to complete the bond between the metal component of the receptacle to the metal component in the receptacle's junction box. This bond is entirely separate from the grounding of the receptacle.

In what situations does a junction box need to be weatherproof?
A junction box needs to be weatherproof if it is located outside. These junction boxes always need to be weatherproof since they are constantly exposed to rain and the elements.
When does code require junction box covers to be labeled?
Junction box labeling is required by Code (NEC) on boxes containing fire alarm circuits and circuits fed from emergency power panels backed up by generators. However, it is a good trade practice to always label your j-box covers with the circuit voltage and circuit numbers.
How does one remove access panels from an electrical junction box?
Removal of an access panels from an electrical junction box depends on the type of junction box in question. Regardless of type, the first step in the removal should be the cutting off of the power main to the box itself.
Do you have to ground a junction box if there is no splice?
No <<>> The NO answer above pertains to a metallic or PVC conduit system. In home wiring, with the type of wire being used it would be near impossible to drag a cable through a switch or receptacle junction box without cutting the cable. Once this cable is cut, the grounds have to be spliced together and this ground wire is then required by code to be grounded to the box.
