Asked by vmelo February 17, 20213
AnswersIf you're concerned with water, humidity, etc. possibly invading your wire connections then these will definitely help. Of course, a lot of water will kill any electrical connection so keep in mind these connectors will just help keep corrosion down.
can this be used on a 120v line voltage light
Asked by Mike September 18, 20205
AnswersYes they can. I used mine to repair Christmas lights. Just use the proper size for your wire and you should be fine.
can i use these to wire lights to boat trailer
Asked by cadaver53 December 16, 20195
AnswersProbably, although I’d recommend a different connector if it won’t be exposed to water, but if it is then this is the connector for you.
Can these be used without an enclosure on line voltage (120V)?
Asked by Justin October 28, 20193
AnswersThe Dryconn Aqua/Orange are UL approved for use in dry, damp, and wet locations below or above grade when used in an enclosure and for use in direct bury applications when operating at 30 volts or less. If you have any questions, please contact us at 800-633-0232 or customerservice-king@ecmindustries.com
Can these be used a second time?
Asked by Willy October 23, 20195
AnswersNo, when you use them the first time some of the grease gets pushed out and will cling to the wire. You'd have to fill the nut with new grease to reuse them and it just wouldn't be worth it.

I used these to install several low voltage exterior landscape lights in order to "brighten up our curb appeal and add some quality aesthetics." In other words, because my wife told me that she wanted low voltage exterior landscape lights installed. These work wonderfully, they are worth every penny. Several of my friends have just used regular connectors fastened over with electrical tape and they wonder why their wives are unhappy and their houses are unlit. I've never had any issues with these--my house is always lit even if its raining, sleeting, or snowing. I believe these play a huge role. Sure they are a bit more expensive than regular connectors, but they are well built for the elements and will last a lifetime.

I like this product. I buy it in several sizes and use them on my sprinkler valves and on low voltage lighting.
I like the silicone inside as it helps keep out the moisture. As a secondary barrier to prevent water from entering the connection on connectors laying in flower beds where irrigation is being used. I buy the flexible duct seal from the same store. The duct seal stays soft and plyable. I add some duct seal around the conductors at the end of the connector and then cover with scotch 88. This has been working well for me. With many locations having two number 12 landscape wires and the smaller wire going to the light, I add the duct seal between each conductor and build a water stop around all three conductors. When folding the conductors and placing them under a landscape pin/staple, I believe this helps keep the water out of the connection.

Most helpful employees
The product did exactly what I needed it to do, but it was the employees in the electrical department, who guided me to the right products, that deserve recognition. I installed outdoor low voltage path lights for the very first time. I did the job entirely on my own, but that would not have been possible if the expert employees at Home Depot had not steered me to the correct products that I needed to complete the job. Thank you, Home Depot- mostly at your Indian Bend location in Scottsdale but I find them friendly and very helpful at whatever I store I go to!
