Intermatic WP5000BL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Intermatic WP5000BL weatherproof cover meet the extra-duty requirement for outdoor receptacles?
Yes. The WP5000BL is extra-duty rated and complies with 2020 NEC Article 406.9(B)(1) for wet locations, and it also meets CEC Article 26-702. It is UL Certified as a Type 3R outdoor enclosure, so it covers rain, sleet, and snow exposure on an exterior wall outlet. That is the rating an inspector looks for on a receptacle in a wet location where a cord stays plugged in.
2) Will a 2.25 inch deep in-use cover leave room for a plug with a bulky right-angle or GFCI cord end?
The cover provides 2.25 inches of depth inside the lid, which is the shallower of the common in-use depths. A standard straight cord cap or a right-angle plug fits; very deep timers, transformer-style wall packs, or oversized locking cord ends may not let the lid close. If you are plugging in a bulky adapter, step up to a deeper cover rather than forcing this one shut, since the lid has to close for the neoprene gasket to seal.
3) Is the Intermatic WP5000BL for one receptacle or two, and can it mount sideways?
It is a single-gang cover, and the base is made for both vertical and horizontal mounting, so it works on a box run either way on the wall. Overall it measures 6.33 inches by 4.66 inches on the wall face with 2.25 inches of depth. For a two-gang box you need a double-gang cover instead; this one will not span it.
4) Can I lock an outdoor outlet cover so tenants or the public can't unplug my equipment?
Yes. The WP5000BL has a lockable hasp that takes padlocks with a shank up to 1/4 inch (6 mm) in diameter. Property managers use that on irrigation controllers, holiday lighting, and common-area power where you want the cord to stay put. Anything thicker than a 1/4 inch shackle will not pass through the hasp.
5) Will a plastic in-use cover hold up in freezing climates or will it crack?
The polycarbonate body is UV stabilized and meets cold impact testing to -60 F (-51 C), plus a 12 lbf impact test rating. That combination is what keeps a plastic cover from going brittle in a northern winter or chalking out after a few seasons of direct sun. The mounting base and inserts are the same UV stabilized material, not just the lid.
6) What comes in the box with the Intermatic WP5000BL, and do I need anything else to install it?
The cover ships with the lid, mounting base, inserts, and a 1/8 inch (3 mm) thick neoprene gasket that is pre-slit for the mounting screws. You supply the receptacle and, if you want it secured, a padlock with a 1/4 inch or smaller shank. Install is a screw-on to the existing box, so no box replacement is needed as long as the box is single-gang.
7) Should I use a plastic in-use cover or a metal one on a commercial exterior?
Plastic makes sense where corrosion is the bigger threat than abuse: coastal and marine sites, RV parks, and general building exteriors, which is exactly where this black UV stabilized polycarbonate cover is aimed. It carries the extra-duty rating a metal cover does, with a 12 lbf impact rating and cold performance to -60 F. Go metal instead when the location sees vehicle traffic, carts, or deliberate abuse, like a loading dock or an unprotected parking-garage wall.
8) Does this cover work over a GFCI receptacle or only a standard duplex?
The WP5000BL is a single-gang receptacle protection cover supplied with multiple inserts, which is how one cover fits duplex, GFCI/decorator, and round device openings. Pick the insert that matches the device face and discard the rest. Note the cover is the wet-location enclosure, not the device protection itself, so an outdoor receptacle still has to be GFCI protected per code.
9) What is the exact part number to order the black single-gang Intermatic extra-duty cover?
Order Intermatic WP5000BL. That is the black, single-gang, 2.25 inch deep extra-duty plastic in-use cover, made in Mexico. If you are standardizing a property, spec the WP5000BL by number so you do not get a different depth or a gray body on the reorder.
