I just installed my first dishwasher. It feels weird to leave these out like this under the sink. Should I be doing something to protect them?

Answer:

You dont need the junction box if you have an outlet right there. Just plug the Bosch cord directly from the dishwasher to the wall. You only need to use the junction box if you intend to hardwire instead of using the power cord.
