NEMA 4x gasket

NEMA 4x gasket

NEMA 4x gasket

(OP)
I have a NEMA 4X box that needs to have a threaded panel mount sma connector attached to the outside for an external antenna.  Do I need to put a NEMA 4X approved gasket underneath this connector, or does the nut and washer constitute an appropriate seal to maintain the NEMA 4x rating?

RE: NEMA 4x gasket

Since there isn't a NEMA code forum, you may want to repost this in an electrical forum (either IEEE C&S or electrical engineering other topics)

RE: NEMA 4x gasket

I would think that most panel shops would have that information readily available. Have you contacted the manufacturer of your NEMA 4X panel?

RE: NEMA 4x gasket

Go to an ele shop and ask for the 2 cents gaskets, theyt are standard in the bus.
