ABSTRACT:
A weatherproof junction box cover assembly, comprising a structural member for mounting relationship with a junction box and a cover hingedly mounted on the structural member with cooperative inter-acting hood means at the top and sides of the cover assembly. A shiftable bias means is provided to normally bias the cover toward a closing position, the bias means being shiftable between an over-center station in relation to the pivot means whereby the cover will stay open when moved to the fully open position and a direct-closing-bias station whereby the cover will be constantly biased toward the closing position. The same cover assembly may therefore be used as a stay-open device or as a self-closing device, merely by shifting the anchor point of the bias means.
