If you really want to use a resin joint, but are concerned about the effects of UV exposure (and particularly given that appearance is not really an issue), you could always put the resin joint inside an enclosure to protect it from the UV.The job is on a farm so looks are not really important but reliability is. I've found joints with gewiss boxes etc and CW glands to be difficult to get properly waterproof, whereas resin joints are cheap and easy to use and proven to be reliable underground. I'm just not sure if they'll break down due to UV exposure.
As far as I am aware, it already is, insomuch as the cheap plastic casing is there more as something to hold the resin in place whilst it's setting, rather than being a functional part of the finished joint.put the resin joint inside an enclosure to protect it from the UV.
I would think that's true. However, the OP clearly has a concern, so I suggested a solution to address that concern!As far as I am aware, it already is, insomuch as the cheap plastic casing is there more as something to hold the resin in place whilst it's setting, rather than being a functional part of the finished joint.put the resin joint inside an enclosure to protect it from the UV.
