Comparison: Weatherproof While In-Use Receptacle Covers for
NEW CONSTRUCTION

THE PROBLEM

  High visibility cover in an area where low profile is desired, ie. front facade of a residential building.

  This unit is large and oversized. In high traffic areas this can cause a hazzard by running into the unit.

  Paint does not adhere well to the surface of the unit, so it can not be painted to match its surroundings.

THE PROBLEM

  This unit does not meet National Electric Code (NEC) 2002 requirements for wet locations.

  The cover does not protect the outlet from water while the plug is inserted and the outlet is in use.

  This unit is not protected against accidental unplugging.

  This unit is not suited for long term outdoor use such as holiday lights and fountains.

THE SOLUTION

  The Multi-Mac Recessed In-Use Cover's flush and sophisticated design is the safer alternative. The unit extends a mere half inch from the wall surface. Taperred edges further accentuate the flush design.

  Prevents accidental unplugging.

  Easily painted to match its surroundings.

  Form need not follow function. The Multi-Mac appeal is both its style and superior safety.

  UL Listed, NEC approved.

  US and foreign patents. Other patents pending.
