NEMA 4x gasket

[lukeseed]

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?

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)

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

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