Questions & Answers

What is the connection between these and the ?

Press fitting is required for this part, as it is designed for use in knockout holes. As of yet, there isn't any Wires are prevented from backing out of the box once they are inserted once they are held in place by fingers. In order to push the wire into the junction box, once Halex has been installed into the knockout hole (without tightening any screws or nuts), one simply needs to press the wire through. Here are some suggestions to help you.

Do you think this would work for Ethernet?

As long as the cord ends are already installed on the cables, I wouldn't recommend them. Instead of a closed grommet, a grommet that opens is better.

When these are installed, is there a trick to getting the wire out of the box? In order to move the cable between boxes, I have to move it from one ?

Breaker should not have power to the cable. Insert a straight blade screwdriver right next to the cable and rock back and forth to spread the jaws of the connector apart. Make sure the cable is not connected to the breaker.

What if I already have a wire installed on top of these? Can you please explain how I came to have wire just loosely stuck into the knockout of the box?

If the wire has been passed through the knockout, you can slip these over it. You can see in the picture that the nylon connector has a cut on one side that allows you to slip it over the wire, even if that wire was already connected to something inside that box. Most states require the use of these connectors to comply with their electrical codes. Once you have powered up all of the lights, you can go back and connect them as needed (as long as you can get to the box). This connector should be used to prevent the outer wire outer sheath from wearing down to the bare wire and causing sparks/fires above the lights (or whatever else you are connecting).

This website is not secure! I would advise you not to buy! The little plastic knobs on the ends of romex will not hold the cable together
3/5

You will be able to pull it back out right away. They have a lot of looseness when they knock on the door There is no way out of the This is what you get if you buy these Super glue is a great tool to have in This is a worthless product.

According to the description
5/5

The plastic replacements are fast and easy to install. I hadn't used them before. However, if you want to run more than one pair of wires through them, it is a little more challenging. Having put two sets through a couple of them, it did work, but you have to push pretty hard to achieve.

That's way more than I need
5/5

There should be an option for a smaller volume. Would have been better to buy individual ones, but they were more expensive. Would have liked 24 of them. I managed to save money anyways, which is great news. It appears that Amazon is selling this item for half what Home Depot is charging.

Deal was great and worked well
5/5

This was an excellent deal, as I needed some electrical work done in my basement. I found it to be about $10 cheaper than big box stores, and only 1 out of 30 didn't work right but that was probably my error.

Much easier to assemble than the old screw-together style
5/5

They don't need to be twisted back and forth like the old metal style, but they do grip the wire a bit better. In addition, the pieces can be assembled and disassembled in seconds without having to be separated before doing so. I would recommend it highly.

It works, and it's at a reasonable price
5/5

My package of 100 is going to last me a lifetime. No problems so far. At a reasonable price you won't have to break the.

It did not turn out to be what I was expecting
3/5

My favorite kind of clothing is loose fitting. Wire gets popped out of no fault of its own when going through.
