For example, I can drill a hole large enough to fit the head of the micro-usb cable through it, but since the head is wider than the actual cable, if you tug of the cable it'll pull the esp8266 again the side of the box and eventually the cable will unplug and fall out of the box.
That all depends on the environment. Out in the weather/rain.snow, wind/dust, then sealing glands sized to exactly fit the wire are required.
Inside a warm room, just holes to fit what ever. Subject to lots of movement and wire pulling, use grommets specifically designed for the wire size.
What will you USE to box for?

Thanks everyone for the quick replies. All of these ideas sounds great and give me enough to think about what I want to do. I like the zip tie idea. The waterproof grommet is probably overkill for the indoor use, but seems to offer a cleaner exterior aesthetic than the basic rubber grommet.
With the current upgrade of the cable infrastructure in Cranberry Township from companies that include Armstrong, Comcast, and Consolidated Communications - residents may use this resource page for additional information.
To ensure the safety of everyone involved, please do not remove, or disturb the flags or any other markings. If the flags or markings are moved or compromised in any way, please call 811 to request the utilities to be marked again.
While utility work is being conducted by third-party contractors, Cranberry Township employees are responsible for marking public water, public sewer, and public stormwater infrastructure. The Township is also using additional contractors to keep up with the demand of marking properties.
Armstrong, Consolidated Communications, and Comcast are currently working to update telecommunication infrastructure networks across the Township to provide upgraded services to residents. This requires access to existing infrastructure on residential properties. Contractors may also need to access residential properties to service other residences or local businesses.
To locate easements on a property, check the property deed, contact the utility companies that service the property, or have a surveyor come to inspect the property.
Those having difficulty locating the property deed should contact the Butler County Recorder of Deeds at 724-284-5340.
Currently, Armstrong, Comcast, and Consolidated Communications are all upgrading their telecommunication infrastructure networks across the Township which requires them to access their existing underground lines.
Those interested in switching providers need to contact the company (Armstrong, Consolidated Communications, or Comcast) for their desired services. Cranberry Township does not need to be contacted during this process.
Cranberry Townships advises to not move or remove the flags. It is recommended to call the utility companies or PA 811 directly to discuss flag positioning. Also call PA 811 if the property needs to be remarked or flags replaced or repositioned. Please note, there are occasions when the flags are missed (not picked up) when the work is completed.
The Township is in constant contact with the utility companies about where they are working and general timelines. While some are very responsive, others are not. All contact info is available on the Township website.
Each company must use their own lines to ensure oversight and accountability in the future. Similarly, any existing lines are already owned by a specific company. Those lines may not be equipped to handle additional usage, requiring new lines to be installed.
CURRENT SCHEDULE
(This is the current schedule of where utility companies are working. This information is supplied to the Township by the utility companies, as requested by the Township. The Township will post the information that is provided to them. Please note: Dates may fluctuate due to weather, crew scheduling, and other variables.)
ARMSTRONG
No current update available from Armstrong.
COMCAST

The Black Sea Submarine Cable Project currently is a major topic of discussion between Georgia and its international partners. It would offer the potential of exporting electricity from renewable sources from the Caucasus to the European Union. Political support for the project is high. Running roughly 1,200 km between Georgia and Romania, mostly underwater, the project is ambitious.
The discussion of the cable ties into the development of the entire energy sector. Will the region have enough energy to export, by the early 2030s, the scheduled time of completion? At least in Georgia, there are doubts. Domestic energy consumption is expected to grow ahead of the projected growth of generation. In practice, entrepreneurs in the sector say that it can be hard to move forward with projects, and various investors have faced setbacks, including resistance at the municipal level. While the government has stressed that it is keen for more generation to come online, observers are still waiting to identify a substantial acceleration in the sector.
The results of a feasibility study by the Italian consulting company CESI are expected later in 2023, or possibly in the first quarter of 2024. Given the scale of the investments, people in the business sector have suggested a more extensive public discussion is required, to weigh the risks and benefits of such a substantial commitment. Among the alternatives that are mooted are larger investments in the transmission lines to Turkey, as an immediate export market and, eventually, as part of integrating with the synchronous grid of Continental Europe.

The ESPIRE Program is designed to support the next steps in the preparation of a potential Black Sea Submarine Cable (BSSC) Project, which aims to establish parallel electricity and fiber-optic submarine cable interconnections across the Black Sea, with landing points in Georgia and Romania.
The first phase of the ESPIRE Program is especially critical, as it aims to help identify a suitable corridor for the BSSC Project, and support further preparatory activitiessuch as surveys of the Black Sea seabed, including geophysical and geotechnical investigations. To enhance the implementation readiness of the BSSC Project, the first phase also includes capacity building and technical assistance for the establishment of adequate institutional mechanisms for intergovernmental coordination and joint decision-making with other countries participating in the BSSC project.
If Georgia and other participating countries decide to proceed with the implementation of the BSSC Project, Phase 2 of the ESPIRE Program would finance, in parallel with Phase 1, the strengthening of the on-land transmission grid in Georgia and potentially other countries, which would be crucial to enabling electricity exchanges through the submarine cable system. Phase 3 would then support the financing of the submarine cable itself, in collaboration with other financiers. The fiber-optic cable component in the same seabed corridor is expected to attract significant private-sector investment.
"The World Bank-supported first phase of the ESPIRE Program will contibute to the important initiative that aims to improve Georgia's energy security, and to support the preparatry works for the Black Sea Submarine Cable (BSSC) Project," said Lasha Khutsishvili, Minister of Finance of Georgia. "We believe that the project will strengthen Georgia's role as a reliable transit country and exporter of renewable energy from the South Caucasus to the European Union, contributing to the diversification of energy sources and the development of regional transport corridors. The project is viewed as a significant step towards closer integration between the South Caucasus region and the EU, fostering economic growth, development, and connectivity across the region."

In February 2019 we've received more snow where I live than in any February in the last 100 years. I've only been venturing out occasionally, but the upside of all that snow is it motivates me to do things inside, like this DIY 600V Duelund DCA12GA power cable project!
Before I get started telling you about how I built this super easy DIY power cable project, let me provide you a sober safety warning that if you do it wrong you could electrocute yourself in one of those zap-thud moments, or even worse, fry your audio gear! So please, please, be careful!
DISCLAIMER: IF YOU DECIDE TO BUILD YOUR OWN DIY POWER CABLE YOU PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK AND EXPRESSLY AGREE TO HOLD JEFF'S PLACE AND POSITIVE FEEDBACK HARMLESS FOR ANY PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR DEATH, OR ANY OTHER LOSS OR DAMAGE THAT MAY RESULT FROM YOUR USE OR MISUSE OF THE INFORMATION PROVIDED.
First I cut three 2.5 meter lengths of the 600V Duelund DCA12GA tinned-copper cable to use for the live, neutral and earth cables. I color-coded both ends of the conductors with some Peavey microphone tape so I could keep track of which was the live (red), neutral (black), and earth (green).
