Legrand WIUCAST-2 Weatherproof While-in-use Cover 2 Gang

Product Description

The LEGRAND WIUCAST-2 is a two-gang, extra-duty weatherproof while-in-use cover designed to protect duplex receptacles in wet and exposed outdoor locations. Constructed from heavy cast aluminum with a gray finish, it provides robust physical protection for energized cords that remain plugged in during use. The self-closing lid design meets National Electrical Code (NEC) Section 406.8(B) requirements for wet locations, making it appropriate for residential and commercial installations where outlet protection is mandatory. Licensed electricians install this cover as part of compliant outdoor wiring systems on construction sites, building exteriors, and similar exposed environments.

The WIUCAST-2 accommodates two duplex receptacle configurations with two outlet lids and supports both vertical and horizontal mounting positions, allowing flexible placement on standard electrical boxes. Its extra-duty rating makes it suitable for construction site use and other high-demand environments where standard-duty covers are not sufficient. The interchangeable device insert allows for adaptability during installation. UL Listed for both the US and Canada, this cover applies to a wide range of commercial and residential exterior wiring applications.
