skip wire nuts, just butt splice the connections

300.15 doesn't specifically mention a jbox is required when using sj cord.

So, switch to NM and use a box

Thanks guys, I might just place the transformer in a 4 or 5 inch box and make all my 110v connections in the box using sj cord with a plug.

anymore suggestions would be great.
