ABSTRACT:
The weather-resistant shelter for a lighting fixture is primarily designed for use in outdoor environments. The shelter comprises upper and lower hood segments attached to a backing plate. A horizontal gap between the hood segments allows cooling air to circulate around electrical components within the shelter while protecting the electrical components from moisture. A second embodiment comprises a backing plate sized and dimensioned to house certain electrical components. In an additional embodiment, the backing plate is divided into independent upper and lower halves for increased flexibility. The device may be specifically configured to accommodate a bulb of 60 watts or more.
