Getting ready to mount a couple of cameras to the outside of one of our buildings in a couple of weeks and need some advice. I've installed a few outside cameras but they've always been under eaves or I've been able to go straight through the brick.

I understand the concept of drip loops, but have never had to do it before, so I'm wondering if it's necessary in this particular scenario. I've attached a couple of reference pictures to show what I'm doing.

This is all going to be run through the non-metallic flex conduit with the appropriate waterproof fittings and no cables exposed.

The cable gland are the weakest point. I would definitely make a drip loop.
