I bought a Hoffman 14" x 16" x 6" rainproof steel electrical box to house lightning protection equipment for an amateur radio antenna tower
-- no 120v AC, just RF signal cables and 12v and 24v control cables.
The box has the hinge on the long side. Is it kosher to mount it with the hinge uppermost rather than on one side? The salesperson (at a "real electrical supplier", not at HD or Lowe's) said the hinge is supposed to be at the side. But since there is a seal all the way around the inside of the door, I can't see that it matters: it's not depending on an "overhang" (which would have to be uppermost) to keep the rain out.
