I would like to know what NEC rules govern wiring runs within J-Boxes......
Here is the scenario:
There is a very large J-Box (actually more like a blank panel) 6' hi; 3 ft deep; 2' wide.
All wires are 277/480 volt conductors. 350 kcmil.
Define a 'boat' as 3 phases + Neut tied into a group with wire ties, thus magnetically balanced.
4 boats run through from bottom to top at the rear.
3 boats run from bottom to top at the front.
A couple of single phases run through diagonally.
2 boats run from left to right.
What codes are applicable in this situation.
What bracing is required.
Are there any caveats which an Inspector could complain about?????
