Outdoor receptacles often feed plugs that are anything but slim: timer modules, low-voltage transformers, heated hose cords. The Intermatic WP1150C is a single-gang plastic in-use weatherproof cover with a deep 4.75 in bubble, so the lid still closes over bulky plugs while they're in use. The clear UV-stabilized polycarbonate lid mounts vertically or horizontally and lets you see what's plugged in without opening it.
Why electricians pick it
- 4.75 in depth clears plug-in timers, transformers and right-angle cord caps.
- Three WP17 inserts give up to 16 device configurations.
- UV-stabilized polycarbonate cover, base and inserts; cold-impact tested to -51°C (-60°F).
- Pre-adhered 1/8 in neoprene gasket with slits for the mounting screws.
- cULus certified; UL certified for Type 3R outdoor enclosures.

Pro tip from the counter
Size the cover to the plug, not the box. Measure the deepest thing that will live in the receptacle, such as a plug-in timer or a landscape lighting transformer, and add room for the cord bend. That is when the 4.75 in depth of the WP1150C pays for itself.
Best for: plug-in landscape lighting transformers, outdoor timers and smart plugs, holiday lighting controllers, residential patios and decks
