I love this stuff for anywhere I think may be more prone to corrosion. It can be used on copper or aluminum. I also use it on my vehicles. Trailer connections, plow connections, anything really. I haven't bothered with that gray crap in years. This also makes for a lot cleaner installation.I don't use the NEMA 5-15R Indsutrial spec grade receptacles anymore for flip box receptacles. Like UG said, twistlock are better, but Sunsystem seems to be the norm. I see Greenair has a 10 ballast flip box LFT-10. A customer attached their own lampcords to terminal strips on the exterior of the enclosure. I wonder if the exposure to heat and humidity might make the bare wires under the screws to oxidize over time.
Mod: Please don't ban me, this is in response to a false claim (lie) that Olyver posted to discredit my work -posting copyrighted material without permission, out of context, while deleting the caption. All can be verified by following the link below.
The picture Olyver (DB, Darryl, Groo or whatever ID he's using today) was kind enough to post, in a fraudulent attempt to discredit my work, was a picture taken from my 120/240v outlet wiring tutorial here: > Here is the caption that goes with the picture:
Connect the Neutral and Ground wires.
Locate neutral/ground buss (lots of green & white wires) & attach your Neutral & Ground. In the main panel the Neutral buss is usually “bonded” to the grounded enclosure so the neutral & ground are probably on a single buss. If separate connect to the corresponding buss.
That pic was an example of what you might find in your MAIN PANEL -not a pic of the inside of one of my panels.
Is somebody who will lie to potential customers someone you want to buy from?

btw, would someone mind helping me understand what the objectionable current is, and how to avoid it? I did some research, and it sounds something like "do not connect neutral to ground" ? Is that right, where do I connect neutral to then?
DX, Dan or whatever your name is, you are a piss ant. The inside of your enclosures don't even have bushings. Your gang-boxes will come loose very easilly. The cheap GE/Intermatic timers you use are garbage, over 30% failure rate. I don't care about getting banned. You copy my website like a child.
Now lets look at this unit, where are your bushings, is that 16awg wire you're using for the receptacles.
Isn't that another one of your pix on a wiring tutorial showing neutral/ground bond in a loadcenter.
Good luck on your kit selling on your new website, isn't it just a copy of your 4 or 5 loadcenters you've ever built.
Mods, ban me if you wish.
no moderator mentioned banning that i saw. I know people have products to sell here, so name calling and flaming may reflect bad about respective companies <<<< just in my personal opinion.
