Taymac MX4280S Weatherproof Cover

The Taymac MX4280S is a single-gang vertical weatherproof cover made from die-cast aluminum with a gray finish. It measures 3 1/2 inches wide by 6 inches high with a 2 1/4 inch depth. The low-profile design includes a polyethylene foam gasket for a weather-resistant seal while the receptacle is in use. It is UL Listed and meets NEC standards. The package includes an adapter, gasket, and mounting hardware.

For GFCI Outlets Needing In-Use Protection

This cover suits installations where a GFCI receptacle must remain protected from the elements while a plug is connected. The vertical mounting orientation fits standard single-gang boxes. Builders who need a horizontal mounting orientation or a cover for a non-GFCI receptacle type should look at a different model. It is not intended for multi-gang configurations or for use without the supplied gasket and adapter.

Simple Mounting With Included Hardware

Installation uses the provided mounting hardware and adapter to attach the cover to an existing single-gang box. The low-profile body sits close to the wall surface. The most common issue is failing to seat the polyethylene foam gasket evenly, which can compromise the weatherproof seal. Ensure the adapter matches the specific GFCI device before securing the cover.

Questions about this item

What mounting hardware is included so I can install the Taymac MX4280S cover on my existing electrical box?

The package includes an adapter, a polyethylene foam gasket and all mounting hardware needed to attach the cover to a standard box.

Will the vertical orientation of this cover still protect a GFCI receptacle that I already have mounted horizontally?

The cover is designed for vertical mounting and its low-profile lid seals over a GFCI receptacle when the box is also oriented vertically.

How can I confirm the cover is properly sealed after I close the lid?

The UL Listed label and the compressed polyethylene foam gasket indicate the weatherproof seal is engaged when the lid is fully latched.
