The positioning and the quantity of junction boxes needed must be assessed based on the type of home.
Let’s now consider the following types of homes:
Install one junction box under each electric distribution box, as
well as other boxes distributed around the system, to house the
DIN devices of the house automation system. DIN devices are
both centralised and distributed.
MULTI FLOOR HOUSE
•
1, 2 or 3
rooms + bathrooms
: minimum number of junction
boxes, for cable joints only. All DIN devices are centralised.
• More than 3 rooms + bathrooms: the junction boxes are also
used for housing the DIN devices of the house automation
system.
DIN devices are both centralised and distributed.
1 FLOOR APARTMENT
Install junction boxes in the false ceiling, or underfloor.
All DIN devices are centralised.
SERVICE SECTOR
A minimum height of 17.5 cm from the floor is recommended. If possible, 30cm approximately.
Normally, the main junction box should be installed under the electric distribution board.
