Abstract
A cord connector having a water-resistant seal that allows a cord to be connected to one or more connectors and then sealed in a water-resistant enclosure in a field installation or environment. The cord is received at a first opening of the enclosure which uses a sealing assembly comprising a nut, strain relief grommet and bushing to provide a water-resistant seal between the cord and the first opening of the enclosure. The connectors are received at a second opening of the enclosure and use a rubber seal to provide a water-resistant seal between the connectors and the second opening of the enclosure.
