I use NEMA Type 4 Hoffman steel enclosures.
See: http://www.hoffmanonline.com/
Their catalog is online at this URL

and

NEMA Type 4 is the specification for outdoor use.
A picture of my installation is at:

Hoffman boxes may be obtained from almost any electrical supply house.
Hoffman makes them in a large variety of sizes. My local electrical supply
house ordered them for me in a couple of days. They are not inexpensive, but
they are top-line enclosures. I consider them the "best" and that is what
William was asking for.
