Abstract: A weatherproof outlet includes a base plate for coupling to an electrical box and a hinged cover. The base plate has at least one opening for accessing an electrical wiring device such as an electrical receptacle mounted in the electrical box. The top surface of the base plate includes an inner rim and an outer rim having a dimension to shed water away from the access opening and the wiring device. A weatherproof gasket is attached to the top surface of the base plate within the confines of the inner wall and overlying the access opening. The gasket includes a plurality of slits for receiving the prongs of a plug and to form a waterproof seal around the prongs when inserted into the slots of an electrical receptacle.

Abstract: An adjustable depth cover plate assembly includes a top plate and an adjustable sleeve to compensate for different spacing between the outer surface of a wall and the front side of an electrical box. The adjustable cover plate is positioned on the electrical box with the end of the sleeve abutting the electrical box. Mounting screws of an electrical wiring device pass through an opening in the top plate of the cover plate into the electrical box whereby the cover plate is captured between the wiring device and the electrical box. The length of the sleeve of the cover plate is adjustable by providing frangible score lines or telescoping members.

Abstract: A cover assembly for attaching to an electrical box includes housing and a cover hinged to the housing. The assembly is mounted to the electrical box to protect an electrical device from moisture while allowing access to the electrical device. The housing has an inner chamber, an outer chamber and an access opening into the outer chamber for the electrical cord that can be connected to the electrical device. The cover assembly is provided with a water barrier member between the inner chamber and the outer chamber to inhibit water and debris from entering the housing of the cover assembly through the access opening.
