What else can I help you with?
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.
Can you splice a240v 30amp receptacle to move it further?
Yes, but you have to do it correctly. You should use 10 AWG wire. The splice should be in an approved electric box using the right size wire nuts. You secure and protect the extended wire and you should not "bury" the splice box in the wall, but cover it with an approved cover made for the purpose. If it is a surface mount box, cover it with a blank metal cover.
Can you box in an electrical panel in an open room?
That depends on what you mean by "box in". You must always provide access to an electrical panel.
What is a sub panel?
A sub-panel is always fed from a main panel. The main panel is situated where the electrical service wiring first enters the main structure on a dwelling plot or building site.A sub-panel can be situated within the same building as the main panel or it can be in a subsidiary building or structure (such as a garage, garden shed or workshop) that is separate from the main building.More informationA sub-panel is another name for a secondary breaker box, just as "the main panel" is another name for "the main breaker-box"."Breaker-box" and/or "panel" are just alternative short names that are used instead of the full name "circuit breaker box".
What is a splice box?
A splice box is the same terminology as a junction box. The function of a junction box is to suppress the spread of fire. In an electrical system the most likely spot for a fire to start is where wires are connected together. Loose connection of joined wires will create a resistance point. Over time with the current flowing through the connection it will heat and cool. This increases the resistance. Without repairs to this situation there will come a time when this heat will reach a combustible temperature. Depending on the type of junction box, it will suppress the spread of this fire by cutting off or limiting the oxygen supply to the fire. If the wire connection splice was in an open wall, adjacent to combustible products, the fire could spread to wall studs and then combustion could overtake the whole building.

Do you have to splice conductors in a j-box with a device?
Yes, it is common practice to splice conductors in a junction box when connecting them to a device such as a switch or outlet. Splicing ensures a secure and reliable electrical connection.
What is a wire splice box?
Wires are not to be spliced or otherwise connected except in an approved electrical box. The box should be accessible, such as an electric outlet or switch box. If you decide to NOT use the box as an outlet or switch box, make certain that you use a blank cover.
3 Wire Dryer Cord Can you splice them together?
The only way you can splice Home electric wiring is with a junction box. Any other way will and can cause fires.
What is the rat tail joint?
A rat tail joint, more commonly called a rat-tail splice a very basic electrical splice used to connect two or more wires by wrapping them symmetrically around a common axis. It is not a mechanically strong splice and is intended for wires that are protected inside an enclosure or junction box.

Is fuse box one word or two when talking about an electrical panel?
When talking about power distribution in regards to the electrical trade, fuse box is used as two words. Another term used is distribution panel, again two words.
What type of cable would be used for feed in to cable box?
Coaxial, RG-59.
What tools is used to catch a cardinal?
A clear box with bird feed in it that has a trap door on it.
How do you properly splice electrical wires in a junction box?
To properly splice electrical wires in a junction box, first strip the insulation off the wires, twist the exposed ends together, and secure them with a wire nut. Make sure the connection is tight and insulated with electrical tape. Finally, tuck the spliced wires neatly into the junction box and secure the box cover.
What is a taps?
A tap splice is a splice that is made usually in a mid span of aerial feeder conductors. It is used to connect a home from a utility company's secondary service drop on the street where the span is between poles and it is not convenient to connect a mid span home to either pole. Tap splices are also made in underground services where the utility feeders are in conduit between junction boxes. Each home along the route has an underground conduit from the junction box to the homes meter base. In the junction box where the home service wires connect to the utility feeders, this splice is known as a tap splice.
Can you box in an electrical panel in an open room?
That depends on what you mean by "box in". You must always provide access to an electrical panel.
