That shrink though 😮‍💨

What happens here

Slide a piece of black heat shrink tubing over each of the crimped wire nut connections. It's important to select tubing that is long enough to fully cover the wire nut and extend slightly over the insulated sections of both wires, ensuring complete and continuous coverage. Position the tubing centrally over each connection.

Goal: Prepare for weatherproofing the electrical connections
