One more question, I swear. How 'bout between the on/off switch box and the fan (10 feet or so)? If that's OK, I may go with that and let a skilled electrician/handy man deal with the junction box. Thanks again ....
Just checking, when you say "cut,", you aren't actually cutting wires, right? You're removing the run from the fan to the switch box? Removing the switch, covering the supply wires with wire nuts and covering it with a solid cover?
All wires must terminate in a box.
