Crouse-Hinds WLRD1 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Crouse-Hinds WLRD1 cover fit a standard duplex receptacle, or does it need a round one?
The WLRD1 is built for NEMA configuration round receptacles, not standard rectangular duplex devices. Each of the two openings is 1-3/8 inches in diameter, so a conventional decorator or standard duplex face will not seat in it. The word duplex here refers to the two spring doors side by side, not to a residential duplex receptacle face.
2) Can the WLRD1 be mounted vertically on an outdoor box?
No. The WLRD1 is a horizontal-mount cover, so the two spring doors are oriented side by side and hinge to shed water in that position. Turning it vertical defeats the drainage the design relies on. If the box in the wall is set for vertical devices, you need a vertical-orientation wet location cover instead.
3) Is this Crouse-Hinds wet location cover rated for hazardous locations like a fuel island or paint area?
No. The WLRD1 is rated for ordinary, non-hazardous locations only. It is a wet location cover, which is a weather and moisture rating, not a Class/Division explosionproof rating. For a classified area you need a cover and enclosure specifically listed for that Class and Division.
4) What keeps water out of the box behind the WLRD1 cover?
Two things: the spring-loaded doors that snap shut over each round receptacle opening, and an integral gasket between the cover and the box face. The gasket is included with the cover, so you are not sourcing a separate seal. Note that spring door covers seal when the doors are closed, so they suit receptacles that are not in continuous use rather than a cord left plugged in permanently.
5) Will an aluminum wet location cover corrode near salt water or on a dock?
The WLRD1 is cast from copper-free aluminum, the alloy specification used on marine and coastal electrical hardware because low copper content resists galvanic and salt corrosion far better than general-purpose aluminum. Dock, marina and RV park power pedestals are typical uses for it.
6) Does the WLRD1 meet code for an outdoor receptacle in the US and Canada?
The WLRD1 is built to NEC and CEC standards, so it is specified for wet location receptacle work on both sides of the border. Keep in mind the cover is one part of compliance; the receptacle itself, the box, and GFCI protection are governed separately by the code article covering your installation.
7) I need to order a replacement cover only, not a whole box. Is the WLRD1 just the cover?
Yes, the WLRD1 is a device box cover with its gasket, ordered under Crouse-Hinds part number WLRD1. The box, the receptacles and the mounting screws into the device are not part of it, so confirm your existing box face accepts a horizontal two-gang round-opening cover before ordering.
