How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect all power and allow components to dry before energizing. Water and electricity are a serious hazard.
- Dry the enclosure: Use absorbent cloths and gentle heat or dehumidifiers to dry internal components. Do not use open flames.
- Inspect seals: Check door and panel gaskets for cracks or gaps. Replace damaged seals.
- Cable entries: Ensure all cable glands and grommets are intact and properly tightened.
- Clear drains: Open and clean any enclosure drain holes to allow water to escape.
