    The input cable from the meter must go into the apartment and then into the distribution panel, where the protective devices are installed and electricity is distributed to several electrical wiring lines. If you do not have a shield, then it means the wiring is old, from the times of the USSR, where one line was drawn and then distributed throughout the rooms in several junction boxes.
    You can’t just say where the junction box is located. If you do not see it, then we all the more cannot know where it is located. Could simply plaster the box when decorating the walls - here we can not help you. The only thing we recommend reading the article is https://my.electricianexp.com/en/kak-najti-raspredelitelnuyu-korobku-v-stene.html

    In the old wiring at the entrance to the apartment there may not be any junction box at all. Very often, before, they would lead one line from the meter directly to the junction box in one of the rooms, then the wire branched out and went into the junction box of another room, etc.
    If the wiring is old, it is recommended to replace it with a new one, and perform installation according to the rules, install at the entrance not a junction box, but a junction box with the necessary protective devices.
