Transport and storage
Pack and store the enclosure for transport or storage so that there can be no undue strain on
the enclosure, particularly on its top cover. If there is too much strain on the top cover of the
enclosure, this can damage the seal.
Do not place the enclosure on the cable glands fitted in its base, otherwise the glands will be
damaged.
