I see. My experience with the M190 ac connector is this: It is possible to join the two connector halves and rotate the cuff sufficiently to establish an electrical connection. But if you don't rotate the cuff until the detant is engaged, you may not completely seal the connection by compressing the internal face gasket. I really haven't looked into it much further but I wonder if the water you observed entered through an incomplete connector mate, along the conductors, into the inverter enclosure?

First, I noticed condensation in the led lens, then water literally dripped out of the AC side as soon as I disconnected it. This was mounted on the top backside of a panel, roughly two ft above a flat roof. ... fascinating Kirk Herander Vermont Solar Engineering 802.863.1202 fax 802.863.7908 VT RE Incentive Program Partner NYSERDA Incentive-eligible Partner NABCEPTM Certified Installer
