Either forget the inside blue globe or put a tee on the nipple and run the wires through that then into the inside blue globe. Then orient the tee so the open fitting is vertical, then fill with oil and cap it.</span></div><div id="yiv7233466619yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1485909286149_6001"><span>Hank</span></div><div id="yiv7233466619yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1485909286149_6001"><span>Thought you could not do multiple wires in a compression fitting?</span></div> <div class="yiv7233466619qtdSeparateBR" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1485917342371_4251"><br clear="none"><br clear="none"></div><div class="yiv7233466619yahoo_quoted" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1485917342371_4198" style="display: block;"> <div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1485917342371_4197" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;"> <div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1485917342371_4196" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"> <div class="yiv7233466619yqt8018866345" id="yiv7233466619yqt68752"><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1485917342371_4253" dir="ltr"><font id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1485917342371_4252" face="Arial" size="2"> On Tuesday, January 31, 2017 3:43 PM, Steve McQueen via Personal_Submersibles <personal_submersibles@psubs.org> wrote:<br clear="none"></font></div> <br clear="none"><br clear="none"> <div class="yiv7233466619y_msg_container" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1485917342371_4203"><div id="yiv7233466619"><style>#yiv7233466619 --
