I am familiar with the Myers hubs. My question was referring to the
"wet-loc" connector you alluded to. Who makes those?<br>

Who manufactures these connectors? Do you have a part number?<br>
<br>
Marco:<br>
<br>
Don't forget that if you do not have splices in an outdoor J box, and if your wire
is wet location rated, you are not required to use Nema 3R boxes and fittings.<br>

Interesting question. May I ask why you want to use a Myers hub rather than a
standard wet-loc outdoor connector?<br>
<br>
My understanding is that Myers hubs are used for weatherproofing and bonding
(when used with a metal box) because the inside nut is serrated. See NEC
250.92(B)(2) and 314.15(A). <br>
<br>
Anyone agree or disagree with me? <br>
