100% Watertight and safe cable / wire connection junction box

I think most of us know the problem when you're outside pulling some cable and it's too short or has to be connected to another cable or wire. Or maybe it broke. Tape won't do the job, neither will any normal box or even the so-called waterproof boxes aren't sufficient or won't fit or are too large and so on. This is a problem many DIY guys and girls face I designed a 100% safe and watertight junction box to address this issue. The files consist of a junction box, a blind lid that allows you to make any size hole or more holes in it, five lids with different sizes of holes (4-6-8-10 and 12mm), and an end cap. You'll need two of each type of lid for every box. Here's how it works: Before you start, turn off the electricity and check! Slide the lids over both cables you want to connect, then slide the junction box over one of the cables. Connect the cables together properly. Next, push the lids into the junction box. If printed correctly, they won't come out again, so make sure it's right the first time. Get a rubber, silicone or any water-resistant sealant and screw the cartridge onto the junction box. Attach your squeeze gun and slowly start filling the junction box. It's essential to let the sealant settle. At some point, the sealant will seep out of the small hole beside the big hole in the lid, or between the lid and the junction box. Stop squeezing immediately. Remove the cartridge and use the end cap to close the hole. To finish, close your sealant with my other design, "The Sealant Cap That Works."
