ABSTRACT:
The present invention discloses a junction box cover without any metallic parts. The junction box cover includes a one-piece, non-metallic face plate with a generally flat upper surface and at least one cutout adapted to reveal an electrical receptacle. A non-metallic receptacle cap is shaped to fill and cover the cutout with a pivot at one end thereof for mounting the cap flush with the upper surface of the face plate when in a closed position, and for exposing the receptacle when the cap is in a open position. A non-metallic retaining bar is utilized to secure the pivot of the cap to the face plate and to provide a retaining pressure for maintaining the cap in an open position.
