  1. Ever used those gel connectors? Stick a bit of choc block or a Wago in them, they squish shut and are IP-something rated.

    Any good?

  6. IP is the Ingess Protection rating for moisture and dust etc.
    The higher the numbers, the greater the protection.

    And no

    I’ve used something like that before
    A clear connector with blue lid that squeezes silicone out when compressed.
     
  14. They are normally for tel wires those little gel blocks.
     
  15. It’s like a small box filled with gloppy gel that squishes around the terminations when you shut the lid, giving (allegedly) a high IP rating.

    Similar principle to the smaller modern Scotchloks.
