 Any connection made in an electrical system it should be made accessible for future service or troubleshooting but must be protected against unnecessary access or damage. This is the role that a junction box plays in an electrical system - providing a location for safe, protected connections between circuits - but may also be used to:
 *To provide a location to make a transition from one wire type to another.
 *To provide an intermediate point in a conduit or section of wire to make feeding wire through a conduit easier.
