Can you please advice on the type of steel which can be exposed to a wet environment and not corrode as easily as other type of metals?

These are the options I am currently looking into:

1. Hot Dip Galvanized: plain steel which is hot dipped after fabrication per ASTM A123.

2.Stainless Steel: type 304 or 316L fully annealed stainless steel

It is to be used in electrical vaults exposed to rain? Please advise
