Re: Connecting To Phone Box ?

Can I just strip the wire, and place the the bare red and green wire's
copper under the screw terminal of the appropriate screw terminals in the
outside box ?

Or, is there some kind of connector, or crimp on tab, that should be used
when going to the main phone box of Verizon ?

Any caveats to be aware of ?


This will work fine.

As far as caveats go I can only think of a couple of things. First is to
not bugger up the wire when stripping and to make electrically sound
connections. The second thing is to realize that the box is there to
separate your wiring from the phone companies expensive equipment. It has
protection to prevent something on your end from buggering up the Telco
equipment so it is important that you only hook wires to your side of the
box.
