Hi Kirk,
the connectors if done correctly are water tight.
There are few thoughts as to issues.

Last week we swapped 4 microinverters on a 2010 system in Naples, FL with
Canadian Solar 230's. No issues whatsoever with the connectors. I probably
oversaw installation of around 1,500 CS6P modules with Enphase M190s in the
2010-2012 time-frame and haven't seen any issues. Some installations are

A product I have used for years is called lexel
It's paintable scrubbable and it's got strong adhesive in it you can put on a
wet surface it will seal !
I have it on some antenna connections that have been there for better than 25
years and it is still there doing the job
I wouldn't hesitate t

Hello,
I am debugging a Florida ocean-side 35 kw array using 4 year old Canadian
Solar panels, which I've never had a high opinion of, installed by others.
I've discovered several not-so-good problems, such as low insulation
resistance through the panels, ONLY when raining, early to mid-mornin
