Usually ready in 2 hours
The EZ Solar JB-1.XL is an oversized rooftop solar junction box designed for systems larger than 7kW. With 200 cubic inches of internal volume and a 120A maximum current rating, the XL handles more conductors and larger wire sizes than standard j-boxes - making it ideal for higher-power residential and commercial solar installations on composition shingle roofs. Patented design, UL1741 listed, and proudly made in the USA with a 25-year warranty.
Key Features
- 200 Cubic Inches - Extra-large interior provides ample room for wire connections on systems over 7kW; fewer workarounds for crowded junction boxes
- 120A Maximum Current Rating - Handles higher-current runs typical of larger residential and commercial solar systems
- 3-Sidewall Wire Entry - Conductors can enter through 3 sidewalls (vs. 1-2 on competing products), giving installers superior wire routing flexibility
- Fast Installation - Fewer components, pre-installed rail, and single-button mounting minimize time on the roof; compatible with standard composition/asphalt shingle installation methods
- Type 3R Enclosure - Weather-resistant enclosure rated for outdoor exposure; multiple patented layers of water protection
- Wide Roof Slope Compatibility - Works on roof pitches from 2.5:12 to 12:12
- UL1741 & CSA Listed - Certified to UL1741 and CSA C22.2 No. 290; Intertek listed (File #5019942)
