ABSTRACT:
A cover assembly for attaching to an electrical box includes a base, a body and a cover hinged to the body. The assembly is mounted to the electrical box to protect an electrical device from moisture while allowing access to the electrical device. The base has a flange around the perimeter to form an open top end. The flange has a coupling member on its inner face to mate with an outer surface of the body.
