  • Patent number: 9819166
    Abstract: A curb and cap junction box assembly protecting joined electrical conductors includes a curb member with a planar flashing and central housing extending upwardly from the flashing, forming an enclosed space. The central housing has top and bottom openings. A plate, secured over the bottom opening has a knockout section and a mounting pan for circuit boards. A cap member has a planar top and peripheral edge extending downward. The cap member reversibly fastens over the top opening of the central housing. The junction box assembly is secured to a structure by the flashing and receives an electrical conductor from the structure through the knockout aperture in the plate member. The electrical conductor extends through the top opening of the central housing and under the downward extending peripheral edge of the cap member and outside the junction box assembly. The junction box provides enclosure for high voltage applications.

  • Patent number: 6942189
    Abstract: The invention is directed to a curb and cap mounting assembly for installation on the roof or wall of a structure. The assembly comprises a curb member that includes a planar flashing portion with a central housing portion extending upwardly forming an enclosed space. The central housing portion has top and bottom openings. A cap member includes a planar top portion and a peripheral edge portion extending downwardly therefrom, the cap member is sized to fit over the top opening of the central housing portion and is reversibly fastened thereto. The cap member has a plurality of linear fasteners secured to the planar top portion. The curb and cap mounting assembly receives a communications cable from interior the structure through the bottom opening of the central housing portion into the enclosed space therein. The cable extends through the top opening of the central housing portion of the curb member and under the downward extending peripheral edge portion of the cap member and extends exterior the assembly.
