Can only think of 2 options. 1. Stay on Dry ground. 2. Build brackets to move it higher, swap locations with AC.

how would i go by sealing it? Some one told me to put something on the connections like vasaline or something to keep them dry,

how would putting a switch on it work? what would i have to do for that
