Product Description

The APPLETON FSK-1VR-A is a 1-gang aluminum weatherproof receptacle cover designed to protect outdoor and wet-location electrical receptacles from moisture, dust, and environmental exposure. Constructed from aluminum, this cover plate provides durable corrosion resistance in demanding installation environments. It is a standard trade component used by licensed electricians to maintain NEC-compliant weatherproof protection at receptacle outlets installed in exposed or damp locations.

This cover is suited for residential, commercial, and light industrial applications where receptacle outlets are mounted in outdoor, wet, or damp-rated locations. Typical install scenarios include exterior building walls, covered patios, job-site power stations, and utility areas. The 1-gang form factor fits standard single-gang outlet boxes.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC Article 406 and applicable local codes. De-energize the circuit at the breaker panel before removing any existing cover or working at the receptacle. Ensure the mounting surface and box are rated for wet or damp location use as required.
