A weatherproof switch cover includes a base plate, a rocker arm provided in the base plate and movable between a first position and a second position and a membrane provided below the rocker arm, the membrane providing a weatherproof seal.
Claims20
A weatherproof switch cover comprising:
- a plate having at least one wall extending around a perimeter of the plate, the plate including an opening configured to align with an electrical switch;
- an actuator associated with the plate and accessible through the opening, the actuator being movable between a first position and a second position, wherein when the actuator is in the first position the actuator stays in the first position until the actuator is moved to the second position, and when actuator is in the second position the actuator stays in the second position until the actuator is moved to the first position;
- and
- a weatherproof seal member at least partially covering the actuator and attached to the plate.

A weatherproof switch cover comprising:
- a plate having at least one wall extending from the plate and forming an open interior area, the plate including an opening;
- an actuator operatively coupled to the plate within the open interior area and accessible through the opening, the actuator being movable between a first position and a second position, wherein when the actuator is in the first position the actuator stays in the first position until the actuator is moved to the second position, and when the actuator is in the second position the actuator stays in the second position until the actuator is moved to the first position;
- and
- a seal member at least partially covering the actuator and attached to the plate.

A weatherproof multi-gang cover comprising:
- a plate having at least one wall extending around a perimeter of the plate, the plate including at least two openings each configured to align with an electrical switch;
- at least two actuators associated with the plate, wherein one of the at least two actuators is accessible through one of the at least two openings, wherein each of the at least two actuators is movable between a first position and a second position, and wherein when the actuator is in the first position the actuator stays in the first position until the actuator is moved to the second position, and when actuator is in the second position the actuator stays in the second position until the actuator is moved to the first position;
- and
- at least one seal member at least partially covering the at least two actuators and attached to the plate.

A weatherproof multi-gang cover comprising:
- a plate having at least one wall extending around a perimeter of the plate, the plate including at least two openings wherein at least one of the at least two opening is configured to align with an electrical switch;
- at least one actuator associated with the plate, the at least one actuator being accessible through at least one of the at least two openings configured to align with an electrical switch, the at least one actuator being movable between a first position and a second position, wherein when the at least one actuator is in the first position the at least one actuator stays in the first position until the at least one actuator is moved to the second position, and when at least one actuator is in the second position the at least one actuator stays in the second position until the at least one actuator is moved to the first position;
- and
- at least one seal member at least partially covering the at least one actuator and attached to the plate.
