Buried Junction Box outdoors (with exposed lid)

[wondervalleypaddy]

I’m in the process of updating a subpanel at my home. I need to construct an entirely new raceway, which will require the use of a junction box halfway. I noticed these Cantex boxes are designed for burial. Just wondering, is this something that should be secured to a 4x4 post or similar underneath? Or is it just assumed that the conduit will hold it in place in the ground? Couldn’t find any related details in NEC.

Plenty of details in the NEC. An electrician can help you. We can't as forum rules do not allow us to help DIYers.
