Abstract
A quick junction box includes a junction box base having a cavity suitably sized and shaped for receiving therein the first set of existing wires and the second set of existing wires, a plurality of electrically conductive members housed within the junction box base, a junction box cover lid having a plurality of apertures for receiving a plurality of existing fasteners therethrough, and a lock for attaching the junction box cover lid to the junction box base. The plurality of electrically conductive members are configured to enable electrical connections between the first set of existing wires and the second set of existing wires while the first set of existing wires and the second set of existing wires remain physically spaced apart within the junction box housing.
