A terminal box assembly for use with an electric motor assembly having a housing includes an annular adaptor fixedly coupled to the housing, a mounting hub extending from the housing and positioned within the adaptor, and an annular terminal box rotatably coupled to the adaptor. The terminal box includes a baseplate having a central opening defined therein and configured to receive the mounting hub therethrough. The terminal box assembly also includes a mounting bracket coupled to the mounting hub and positioned within the terminal box such that the baseplate is positioned between the mounting bracket and the adaptor. At least one fastener is inserted through an opening in the mounting bracket and is configured to selectively engage the base plate to compress the terminal box and the adaptor together.
