Waterproof cover

An electric cabinet, comprising:

• an exterior wall defining an opening;
• a frame cover disposed about the opening to define an upper passage and to direct fluid flow moving through the opening downward through the upper passage;
• and
• an additional cover, which is attachable to a lower end of the frame cover to provide the electric cabinet with protection against fluidic ingress from an exterior of the frame cover and the additional cover, through an interior of the additional cover and into an interior of the frame cover, wherein the additional cover comprises:
• first and second portions having first and second main sections, respectively, and first and second flanges, respectively;
• and
• first and second sidewalls extending between corresponding sidelong edges of at least the first and second main sections,
• the first and second portions and the first and second sidewalls being arranged to define a flow passage with an inlet fluidly communicative with the upper passage at an upper end thereof and an outlet at a lower end thereof, and
• the first and second flanges being provided at the inlet and outlet, respectively, to prevent fluid flow through the flow passage, and
• wherein:
• respective upper edges of the first and second portions and the first and second sidewalls form the inlet and the first flange extends from the upper edge of the first portion and forms an acute angle with the first portion at the inlet, and
• a lower edge of the second portion terminates above a lower edge of the first portion, the second flange extends from the lower edge of the second portion and forms an obtuse angle with the second portion above the outlet, and respective lower edges of the first portion, the second flange and the first and second sidewalls form the outlet.

An electric cabinet, comprising:

• an exterior wall defining an opening;
• a frame cover disposed about the opening to define an upper passage and to direct fluid flow moving through the opening downward through the upper passage;
• and
• an additional cover for providing at least one of NEMA4 and IPX6 protection, which is attachable to a lower end of the frame cover,
• the additional cover being formed to define a flow passage fluidly communicative with the upper passage and being configured to form a tortuous path for fluid propagating from an exterior of the additional cover, through the flow passage and toward the upper passage, wherein the additional cover comprises:
• first and second portions having first and second main sections, respectively, and first and second flanges, respectively;
• and
• first and second sidewalls extending between corresponding sidelong edges of at least the first and second main sections,
• the first and second portions and the first and second sidewalls being arranged to define a flow passage with an inlet fluidly communicative with the upper passage at an upper end thereof and an outlet at a lower end thereof, and
• the first and second flanges being provided at the inlet and outlet, respectively, to prevent fluid flow through the flow passage, and
• wherein:
• respective upper edges of the first and second portions and the first and second sidewalls form the inlet and the first flange extends from the upper edge of the first portion and forms an acute angle with the first portion at the inlet, and
• a lower edge of the second portion terminates above a lower edge of the first portion, the second flange extends from the lower edge of the second portion and forms an obtuse angle with the second portion above the outlet, and respective lower edges of the first portion, the second flange and the first and second sidewalls form the outlet.
