20140342589 | WEATHER RESISTANT POWER OUTLETS - A General Power Outlet (GPO) is provided having a hinged cover and integrally formed side walls forming a moisture drip line. Waterproof and electrically insulated seals protect rocker switches. Located behind pin apertures is a waterproof and electrically insulated elastomeric body having self-closing pin slots. Without inserting a plug, the elastomeric body still seals the apertures completely like a gasket. The pivot structure of the lid bevels and rounds the top of the back of the lid. This allows the top of lid to be level with the wall and the base of the body when it is fully opened at horizontal position. A wall gasket serves as a weatherproof sealer between the GPO and the wall when the invention is installed. | 11-20-2014 |
