    Abstract: A junction box includes an enclosable housing that includes a bottom with a bottom interior surface and a bottom exterior surface. The housing is configured to mount to a roof of a structure with a slope. The junction box includes a central area of the bottom configured for penetrations into the roof. The junction box includes a sealant on the bottom exterior surface. The sealant surrounds the central area of the bottom at least along an upper portion and side portions of the central area. The upper portion is oriented toward an upper side of the bottom with respect to the slope of the roof. The junction box includes a plurality of anchor openings in the bottom located between the central area and the sealant. Each anchor opening is configured for an anchor. Securing an anchor through an anchor opening contributes to securing the housing to the roof.

    Abstract: A junction box includes an enclosable housing with a bottom. The housing is configured to mount to a roof of a structure with a slope. A sealant is disposed on the bottom exterior surface of the bottom. The sealant surrounds a central area of the bottom. The central area is configured for penetrations into the roof and the sealant surrounds at least an upper portion and side portions of the central area. The upper portion is oriented toward an upper side of the bottom with respect to the slope of the roof. The housing includes a plurality of anchor openings in the bottom. Each anchor opening is configured for an anchor where securing an anchor through an anchor opening contributes to securing the housing to the roof and applies a force that compresses a portion of the sealant adjacent to and/or surrounding the anchor opening.

    Abstract: In an example embodiment, a junction box may include a flashing. The flashing may define a first groove. The first groove may be disposed relative to a first center axis on a first plane. The junction box may also include a housing. The housing may include a bottom portion. The bottom portion may define a second groove. The second groove may be disposed relative to a second center axis. The second center axis may be coincident with the first center axis in a direction that is substantially parallel to the first plane of the first groove. In addition, the second groove may be located on a second plane that is substantially parallel to the first plane of the first groove. Further, the second groove may be configured to indicate a suitable hole position in the bottom portion.
