I wasn't sure what topic this fits under, but I wanted to pick your brains.
I have a site in Japan on Okinawa that has one dispenser on the end that the UDC always fills up with water during storms. The problem is that the canopy is super tall, so it doesn't really block the rain.

We have another site that has a "Typhoon raincoat" on the dispensers. But we don't really want to resort to that here.

What are your thoughts? How can we keep the water out?

Re: Storm proof dispensers
Positive pressure in the UDC and lower dispenser cabinet. About 5 inches of water column from a small XP blower should be enough. Have installed a few for NEXCOM over the years.
When you are dead it's likely you won't know it. It could be difficult for others. It's the same if you are stupid.
