possible to join the two connector halves and rotate the cuff sufficiently to
establish an electrical connection. But if you don't rotate the cuff until
the detant is engaged, you may not completely seal the connection by
compressing the internal face gasket.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal>I just figured out why I could not reset a GFI error on one
of my micro-inverters. First, I noticed condensation in the led lens, then water
literally dripped out of the AC side as soon as I disconnected it. This was
mounted on the top backside of a panel, roughly two ft above a flat roof. …..
