Abstract

Disclosed is a lift cover assembly which effectively shields and seals an electrical installation box having an electrical wiring device mounted therein against the entry of rain or other liquid sprays whether the lift cover is in a raised or in a closed position. With the lift cover in the raised position, the assembly also functions to shield the interface between intercoupled wiring devices. The assembly employs a unique, elastomeric member of overall substantially annular shape which is compressible and extendable upon the closing and opening, respectively, of the lift cover to accomplish these functions without sacrificing the narrow profile of the assembly.
