Either pull the wires back to the JB or install a JB at the location where the wires come out of the wall.
Do you have duct work taking the warm air into all the various rooms?I currently have blown (forced hot air "FHA") natural gas heat (which I like) and electric baseboard heat (which I hate).
Correct. The appliance (like a fluorescent light) is it's own junction box.... I'd like to remove a few of the baseboards...
It looks like the wire comes right into the baseboard where I'm assuming the splice is. In other words, no J-Box right behind the heater.
There are a LOT of ways to meet code and to be safe.The electric baseboard has its own panel in the basement,
which we have shut off to prevent our kids from messing with them.
So, from a code and general safety perspective...
Do I have to... I'm assuming that...
