3.5.4 Weatherproofing Connectors
Once all connectors and cables have been configured and assembled,
weatherproofing is vital to prevent corrosion due to water ingress which could lead to
eventual failure.
1. Making sure that the connector surfaces are clear of residue and dry, firmly
tighten the connectors.

2. Seal the connector assembly by tightly wrapping Butyl tape over the connection.
Two or more layers should be used so that the tape seals the entire connection
and extends beyond the connector by about an inch.
