Reply to comment by JSOCoperatorD in Electrical outlets, can I cap off temporarily? by JSOCoperatorD

I'm not sure why you want to add an additional junction box. Is the outlet not attached to one now?

Just to protect the wiring and keep it snug out of the way of the countertop installers. After the new counters are in I will need to cut holes in the counter top where the old outlets were and hook them back up. The outlets are currently assembled as they would be in the wall but hanging outside the wall. I don't know if it's ok or not so I just wanted to get them secured and not have any issues with the cabinet company about it.

Okay. I was picturing wall-mounted outlets, not counter-mounted. Sounds like you have it all in hand.
