If you use enough electrical tape, that counts as a junction box, right? (infosec.pub)

I'm a hack myself, so I get it, but jeez. A wet application like a dishwasher installation really isn't the place for this sort of carelessness.

The second picture shows how I remotely open a circuit breaker.

This post is a follow to my previous dishwasher install post (https://pixelfed.crimedad.work/p/crimedad/664264701761318465).

Yes I ended up putting a new junction box in the under sink cabinet. It's part of a kit from Bosch that includes their proprietary power connector. The dishwasher has its own 20A circuit, but I'm not sure if it has a DFC breaker. I will have to check on that.

I love the green floor, too. I wish it was in better shape.
