[RE-wrenches] Push-in Wire Connectors

Anyone see a problem using Ideal In-Sure Push-In Wire Connectors in a
NEMA 4 roof mounted PVC junction box? Specifically, Ideal Model 39 for
splicing #10 AWG.

 

They are 105C, 600V rated, but not rated for wet locations. I've had
inspectors require wet location rated twist-on wire connectors before in
these boxes. I foresee an issue...

 

Unfortunately, these connectors were not addressed in John Wiles code
corner Making Connections article in 2003. May be time for an update!
