How does the "burden of proof" work with product documentation for RMC fittings, for use in wet and damp locations?
Is it such that the datasheet has to indicate "dry locations only" to forbid it?
Or is it that the datasheet has to indicate "wet locations" or "damp locations" to allow it?
Given a datasheet that omits this information, what can we conclude about where it can be used?
I ask because I'm looking through datasheets of RMC compression fittings and 3-piece couplings, and a lot of datasheets omit this information. Plus, the construction of these types of fittings makes me question whether or not they are sufficiently waterproof.
