PullBoxesandSplices
Pull Box Installation
Locate pull boxes in easily accessible locations
locations. Horizontal cable boxes should be installed
above suspended ceilings. Should be used when installing a pull string or cable, fishing the
conduits run, and pulling and looping the cable in the next length of conduit.

cable
Splice boxes
Intended to be used for splicing in addition to pulling cable. A slip sleeve is a conduit sleeve
that is larger than the main conduit, and slipped over an opening in a conduit run after the
cable is in place. A gutter is a square, sheet-metal housing, which is placed over an
opening in a conduit. Slip sleeves or gutters cannot be used for splices, but can be used in
place of a pull box, are more economical to install, and will provide more space for pulling.
