<description><![CDATA[Storm97 posted : Is it for an outdoor fitting, or indoor?  In my experience, the PPC's have a high fail rate when they are installed outdoors and exposed to the elements (not in a box, or on an exposed ground block like DTV and Dish use).  I use the Thomas & Betts on a daily basis, and I have no complaints.  I haven't had to change nearly as many T&B's as I have PPC's.  The P6QS also go onto most all cable quite nicely, and compress pretty tight.<br><small>--<br>My Computer: Dell Dimension 4500, w/ Pentium 4 @ 2.00Ghz, 40 Gig WDC drive, 768MB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 420 and GVC-Realtek 10/100 NIC</small>]]></description>
