The best material to use on these types of connections is a rubber amalgamation tape. This can be purchased at any electrical supply house. After applying the rubber tape overlay it with ordinary electrical tape. The electrical tape has UV protection that will stand up under the sunshine and protect the rubber tape. When the electrical tape starts to look dried out and starts to crack just re install new electrical tape, the rubber tape will be alright and not need to be replaced.
There are many grades of electrical tape. Rolls from China are very thin and the adhesive does not have sticking power. This type of tape will shrink. It will also break down when exposed to sunlight as there is no UV component add when the tape is manufactured. Stick to 3M or an equivalent manufacturer. Their tape is treated for UV protection and will last years in direct sunlight. All tape will shrink when exposed to a heat source
