Overview

The Vimar VMV70191 is a yellow joint plate for flush mounting junction boxes, used to couple boxes as part of a recessed installation. It is suitable for built-in installation boxes and for central conduit boxes, making it a practical accessory when you are building out junction points behind panels, inside lockers, or within interior bulkheads.

On board, this kind of small hardware matters when you are trying to keep wiring runs tidy and junctions accessible. It helps you join junction box sections in a clean way so covers line up and the installation stays serviceable when you come back later for troubleshooting or upgrades.

The yellow finish also makes the joint easier to spot during a refit, especially in crowded service spaces where multiple boxes and conduits meet.

Key features

• Joint plate accessory for flush mounting junction boxes
• Suitable for built-in installation boxes
• Suitable for central conduit boxes
• Yellow color helps with quick identification during installs and maintenance
• Supports clean, aligned junction box runs when multiple recessed boxes are installed together

Compatibility and fit

This part is intended for Vimar junction box systems used in flush-mount applications. Confirm your existing box type and layout match the Vimar recessed box and conduit box formats before ordering, especially if you are tying into an older installation or mixing components from different electrical systems on the boat.

For best long-term serviceability, plan the junction box location so the cover remains reachable after interior panels and liners are back in place, and leave enough slack for future re-terminations.

Installation and setup

Install the joint plate during the dry-fit stage while the boxes are still accessible in the cutout. Once the boxes are aligned and secured, route conductors with clear bend radius and strain relief so movement and vibration do not transfer load into the terminations.

Label circuits at the junction box and keep splices organized inside the enclosure. That small step saves a lot of time later when you are chasing a fault or adding equipment.

Onboard use notes

This accessory is commonly used in protected interior spaces such as behind helm consoles, inside cabinetry, or within technical compartments where wiring splits to lighting, pumps, electronics, or auxiliaries. If the junction area is exposed to spray or washdowns, the enclosure choice and sealing method should be appropriate for that location.

Maintenance and care

During seasonal checks, inspect the junction box area for loose conductors, chafe points, or signs of moisture. Keeping junctions clean, supported, and easy to identify helps prevent intermittent faults and speeds up troubleshooting when you are underway.
