##  nema 4  boxes are  water proof.  You can test that urself with a garden hose.
I use hoffman boxes with the rubber gasket.    I also noticed that on the hammond
version, the rubber gasket is replaceable.   Either way, I would suggest applying a thin
layer of  silicone dielectric grease on the rubber gasket, before tightening things down.   Then the
rubber gasket will last longer....and 100 %  zero water, moisture ingress.
