7-4 Waterproof and insulation processing of connectors
In order to prevent water intrusion into the “T” branch connectors and the straight connectors, we
recommend to wind a self-adhesive tape and provide waterproof processing for them. For insulation
purposes, cover these connectors with jackets.

Prior to adhering the tape, clean the surface of the connectors and stick the adhesive side of
the tape on the connector surface. Wind to lightly spread on the connector surface, and overlap
with the next wrap to half of the tape width. Wind the tape for each wrap evenly so that the
connector metal portion is completely covered with the tape.
Be careful not to excessively stretch the tape.
