okay guys quick question.. i have a driver, and an ac power cord. both have 3 wires. solder them together, boom the wire has power.... AND there are 3 AC leads left exposed.

my question is what options or products exist to insulate that wire, preferably in a weatherproof and/or 'professional' way. for instance, on like the timber frameworks in the picture, it looks like the AC side of the driver turns into a 'plug' that looks to maybe be sealed enough to be 'weatherproof'. are people using 'heat shrinks'?

any advice on cleaning up the AC side of the build with specific part numbers or links would be very helpful.. thank you!!!
 
Im using a junction box for low voltage, and lower voltage.. But i used crimps for the pots and have a large heat shrink that will go over all the crimps.. You could do the same for an ac cord
