Abstract
An electrical outlet assembly for a vehicle is provided. The electrical outlet assembly includes a panel and an electrical receptacle. The panel includes a sidewall and a bottom wall that extends from the sidewall, and is coupleable to a vehicle panel of the vehicle to define an interior cavity therewith. The electrical receptacle is coupled within a receptacle opening defined in the sidewall. The sidewall defines a first drain opening beneath the electrical receptacle, and the bottom wall at least partially defines a second drain opening, each of the first and second drain openings providing fluid communication with the interior cavity. The panel is configured to direct fluid that enters the interior cavity through the first drain opening out of the second drain opening and away from the electrical receptacle.
