Leviton IUM1V-GY – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Leviton IUM1V-GY outlet box hood metal or plastic?
Die cast aluminum. That is the whole point of the IUM1V-GY over a lighter-duty plastic cover: the metal body takes impact, resists corrosion, and does not chalk or crack from UV exposure after a few seasons on an exterior wall. Good choice for industrial and commercial exteriors where covers get hit by carts, ladders, and hose spray.
2) What does an extra-duty outlet box hood like the Leviton IUM1V-GY actually do that a flat weatherproof cover does not?
A flat flip-lid cover only seals when nothing is plugged in. The IUM1V-GY is a hood, so it encloses the receptacle and the plugged-in cord end, keeping rain, moisture and dust out of the box while a cord is in use. That is what you want on an exterior receptacle feeding a sign, pump, holiday lighting, or anything left connected outdoors. If the outlet is only ever used with nothing plugged in, a simple self-closing flat cover will do the job.
3) Can I use the Leviton IUM1V-GY hood over a switch, or is it receptacles only?
Both. The hood is made to shield outdoor receptacles, switches and other wiring devices mounted in the box, so it works as an exterior switch cover as well as a receptacle cover.
4) Is the Leviton IUM1V-GY suitable for a wet location outdoors, or damp only?
It is a weatherproof hood intended for outdoor electrical installations and for wet and damp location outlet box protection, including exterior receptacle and switch covers on commercial and industrial buildings. Note the hood is the cover assembly only; the box, device and any gasket or fasteners that come with your box are separate.
5) Is the Leviton IUM1V-GY a retrofit, or only for new construction?
Either. The hood is used on both new construction and retrofit electrical work, so you can pull an old cover off an existing exterior box and mount this in its place, provided the box configuration matches. Leviton offers this hood in more than one size, so match the hood to the box pattern you are covering before you order.
6) What color is the Leviton IUM1V-GY hood, and will it match the other exterior covers on my building?
The IUM1V-GY is the gray version of Leviton's die cast aluminum extra-duty hood, so it reads as a neutral metallic gray rather than white or bronze. For a property with mixed exterior hardware, gray is the easiest one to standardize on across multiple buildings since it blends with conduit, LB fittings and cast boxes.
7) What is the exact Leviton part number for the gray extra-duty aluminum outlet box hood?
Leviton IUM1V-GY. That single part number is the whole order for this configuration, so quote it as-is when you are specifying or restocking; there are no separate finish or size suffixes to add.
