I never had it shoot, only slowly seep. After inspection of the tower, I am blaming squirrels for damaging most of the lines going up. Some have been hit a little harder than others.

Must the chassis be mounted to the DIN rail via the back of the chassis or can the mount be relocated to the top\bottom? I assume it can't be moved, but I'd like to mount it so that the ports of the surge suppressors are pointing down. Should any water enter the cable, gravity would take it back out of the connector, down the side of the cable instead out the back of the connector, down onto the next surge suppressor below it. I could just put a DIN rail at the top of the box, but just wondering if I could just use the same rail I'm using for everything else. No, it's not green cable and there shouldn't be any wear points, so I'm not really sure how it's getting in. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com Midwest Internet Exchange http://www.midwest-ix.com
