Hello Bill,
It is best to use a cable connector, that is like a box connector, but it
has a taper rubber seal that is put under compression with a screw on
bushing. The threaded end that goes into the box knock out hole, has a
o-ring between the box and the box connector.
They look something like a hydraulic hose fitting, but you can get these box
connectors in black plastic.
I like to use the Thomas and Bette's industrial products, which are marine
and aircraft quality.
Some times I have use a Aeroquip lite weight aluminum hose fittings that
works good as a box connector. You can gets these from some hydralic shops.
