WHILE-IN-USE COVER DESCRIPTION

This product is a weatherproof cover that is intended to enclose an electrical device (outlet, GFCI, switch, etc.) and protect the device from
inclement weather even when a plug and cord are inserted in it. It is designed to install quickly and easily (see instructions below) and
provide an attractive, durable finish that will yield long-lasting results.

APPLICATION

The cover should be installed in areas subject to saturation from water or other liquids (see description for “Wet Location” and “Damp
Location” in the National Electrical Code). The cover can be mounted horizontally or vertically, as long as the hinge is in the top corner.

WARNING – Turn off all power to circuit before installing this device. Improper wiring of any electrical device can cause serious injury
or death. These wiring devices should only be installed by an Electrician or other qualified person. This cover should be installed in
accordance with the National Electrical Code, and all applicable local codes and standards.

Note – Box can be used with stucco, vinyl siding (0.825" built in J-channel), or other suitable
