Outdoor receptacles that power block heaters, pond pumps, holiday lights or landscape transformers need a cover that stays closed while something is plugged in. The Intermatic WP1050 is a clear in-use weatherproof cover for a double-gang box, 4-3/4 in deep, that mounts vertically. It comes with a gasket, base, mounting screws and two inserts for GFCI and round device openings.
Why electricians pick it
- 4-3/4 in deep bubble closes over plugs and cords while they are in use.
- Clear, UV-stabilized polycarbonate lets you see the GFCI status and plug without opening it.
- cULus, UL certified for Type 3R outdoor enclosures, cold impact tested to -51°C.
- Two inserts included (GFCI and round), and they rotate for vertical or horizontal devices.
- 1/8 in neoprene gasket seals the base to the box.

Pro tip from the counter
Check the cord count as well as the plug depth. Intermatic rates the WP1050's cord exit for two #14 AWG cords or one #10 AWG cord, so a heavy 10-gauge extension cord for a pump or a heated hose uses the whole opening and nothing else should be left plugged in beside it with the lid closed.
Best for: block heater and car plug receptacles, pond pumps and fountains, holiday and landscape lighting, patios and cottage decks
