1-Gang Bubble Cover Weatherproof | Horizontal/Vertical Mounting | Extra-Duty Plastic | WP5100C

The WP5100C Extra-Duty Plastic In-Use Weatherproof Cover is engineered to deliver maximum protection for outdoor electrical outlets in wet, harsh, and demanding environments. Designed for single-gang applications, this cover supports both vertical and horizontal mounting and allows cords to remain connected while maintaining full weatherproof protection.

Manufactured from heavy-duty UV-stabilized polycarbonate, the WP5100C resists cracking, fading, and impact damage even under prolonged sun exposure and extreme temperatures. It is extra-duty rated and fully compliant with 2020 NEC Article 406.9(B)(1) for wet locations, as well as CEC Article 26-702, making it suitable for commercial, residential, and industrial installations.

This in-use cover is UL certified for Type 3R outdoor enclosures and meets cold impact testing down to -60°F (-51°C), ensuring dependable performance year-round. A reinforced hinge pin exceeds a 40 lbf stress test, while a 12 lbf impact rating ensures the cover remains intact during accidental impacts.

The clear, low-profile cover provides full device visibility while protecting receptacles from rain, snow, dirt, and debris. A lockable hasp accepts padlocks up to 1/4″ (6 mm) diameter for added security. Each kit includes a 3 mm neoprene gasket, mounting base, cover assembly, screws, and inserts—delivering a complete, installer-friendly solution right out of the box.
