[RE-wrenches] Push-in Wire Connectors

[Drake]

With electrical connections in NEMA 3R boxes, I've never had an 
inspector have a problem with non wet location equipment.  This 
includes NEMA 3R service equipment with breakers, bus bars and other 
equipment which must stay dry.  The 3R does not use a gasket like the 
4X, but is reliant on the construction and proper orientation to shed 
rain, and is not suitable for hose down applications.
