In-Feed Junction Box - Flexible HubNote - A junction box is only necessary if a single in-feed is being split to multiple powered beams.

Otherwise, in-feed conduit may be attached directly to a beam bracket at the end of a run. Y-Connectors may also be used in conjunction with the beam brackets as shown below.

5 - Secure junction box to the hub cover using #8-32 thread cutting screws.

Hubs can sit directly over or adjacent to floor core.
