Question:
Low Voltage junction boxes on the ceiling, do they need to have covers on them? The wire isn't in conduit either. I am in Minnesota

A
Answer:
Hey Jerry thanks for your question. Live parts are not required to be guarded unless they are at 50 volts or more as stated in 110.27 so the boxes are not required therefore covers are not required either. If it is a Class 2 or Class 3 circuit the wiring methods in 725.130 apply but conduit is not specifically required.
