I can point you to a bin fire where insurance didn't want to pay because it was caused by in indoor rated welder plug corroding and shorting out because it was used in an outdoor situation. Thinking about it, I think they 'settled' for a lessor payment, and no longer would insure him.
It is if you put it in an outdoor enclosure, unplug it and close the lid when it’s not in use.
There’s nothing magical about using a twist lock plug outdoors that keeps it from corroding or shorting out.
