14/2 Romex comes into attic from kitchen lighting circuit. This was used for garage/attic lights, but new circuit have been installed, so it's no longer needed. I understand a junction box is needed to terminate the wire, but my concern is that the junction box will be hidden under new insulation that will be added to attic.
Technically, there's no splice, its just the termination of a single unused Romex, but it still doesn't seem wise to have the junction box hidden under insulation.
What is the proper way to handle this?
